Imported Audio File Sound Not Working

So I want to import the vocals to a frank sinatra song into my lmms project. When I import the song into the sample song on the song editor, the song will show up but no sound will play when played through. I tried converting the file to WAV and AIFF and still not working. All the other sound in lmms works for everything else but I cant figure out how to get the sound file to play in the song editor.

any suggestions?

I guess you are using the sample track. Unfortunately it is a little bit broken. You can play the sample only from the beginning. Be sure the play head hits the start of the sample.

In the upcoming version of lmms it will be possible to play a sample from every position.
