How to play .wav files in embedded asp.net media player?

I'm trying to using the embedded window media player in MVC to play .wav files. I'm pretty much succeeded in playing all the other formats but somehow .wav files (which i actually need ) are messing it up and WMP is not playing them below is my code. In View

 <object id="mediaPlayer" type="application/x-oleobject" classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6"> 

                     <param name="URL" value=""  />
                       <param name="enabled" value="true" />
                       <param name="animationatStart" value="1" />
                       <param name="transparentatStart" value="true" />
                       <param name="autoStart" value="false" />
                       <param name="showControls" value="true" />
                       <param name="Volume" value="-300" />
                       <param name="ShowDisplay" value="0"/>
                       <param name="ShowGotoBar" value="0"/>
                       <param name="ShowControls" value="1"/>
                 <param name="ShowAudioControls" value="1"/>
                    </object>

and this is my javascript code

document.getElementById("mediaPlayer").URL = "E:\\HyperEngine\\Recordings\\20141223_193917_026_00_000.WAV";

     document.getElementById("mediaPlayer").controls.play();

everything is fair and good if i give the path of and mp3 file but wav file.anybody's help is really appreciated. P.S: I know I can also use other media players, this using WMP is the specific requirement so I have to find a solution to this..
