PowerPoint will not play sound files

I've read all the threads and tried everything.

I have PP presentations with linked and embedded sound that have played for
years and all of a sudden don't.
I have re-set the links and it doesn't help.
The files are in the same folders.
I've tried playing them from the start menu and they work
New presentations I have created today won't play the sound files either.
The sund files all play in Media Player and Sonic Stage
Presentations that I saved as .pps files to CD still work from the CDs

The only changes that have happened recentloy are:

I installed SonicStage (Sony Music) but not as the default player
I had a system crash and technicians reinstalled part of my software (don't
know what exactly and I dont think they do!)
They also removed an.exe from PP that was a template for a corporate
ptresentation.
 
Installing SonicStage highjacked your multimedia file extensions and
registry settings. I suggest downloading the latest version of Windows
Media Player and reinstalling it.
