Because mySoundFile is a Stream, you can take advantage of SoundPlayer's overloaded constructor, which accepts a Stream object:

System.IO.Stream str = Properties.Resources.mySoundFile;
System.Media.SoundPlayer snd = new System.Media.SoundPlayer(str);
snd.Play();

a) OK, first add audio file (.wav) into project resource.

1. Open "Solution Explorer" from menu toolbar ("VIEW") or simply press Ctrl+Alt+L.
2. Click on drop-down list of "Properties".
3. Then select "Resource.resx" and press enter.

4. Now select "Audio" from the combobox list.

5. Then click on "Add Resource", choose audio files (.wav) and click "Open".

6. Select audio file(s) and change "Persistence" properties to "Embedded in .resx".

b) Now, just write this code to play the audio.

In this code I'm playing audio on form load event.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;

using System.Media; // at first you've to import this package to access SoundPlayer

namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
    public partial class login : Form
    {
        public login()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void login_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            playaudio(); // calling the function
        }

        private void playaudio() // defining the function
        {
            SoundPlayer audio = new SoundPlayer(WindowsFormsApplication1.Properties.Resources.Connect); // here WindowsFormsApplication1 is the namespace and Connect is the audio file name
            audio.Play();
        }
    }
}

That's it.
All done, now run the project (press f5) and enjoy your sound.
All the best. :)

You need to be cautious about the garbage collector freeing up memory used by your sound while the sound is still playing. While it rarely happens, when it does, you will just be playing some random memory. There is a solution to this, complete with source code for achieving what you want here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd743680(VS.85).aspx

When you have to add sounds into your project, you will do so by playing .wav file(s). Then you have to add the .wav file(s) like this.

   using System.Media; //write this at the top of the code

   SoundPlayer my_wave_file = new SoundPlayer("F:/SOund wave file/airplanefly.wav");
   my_wave_file.PlaySync(); // PlaySync means that once sound start then no other activity if form will occur untill sound goes to finish

Remember that you have to write the path of the file with forward slashes (/) format, don't use back slashes (\) when giving a path to the file, else you will get an error.

Also note, if you want other things to happen while the sound is playing, you can change my_wave_file.PlaySync(); with my_wave_file.PlayAsync();.
