AudioClip, one wav works.. another doesn't?

Question

I'm trying to use the AudioClip class.. and the example I copied over works fine (see code below) but when I change the sound file it stops working. Tried wrapping it in a try and catch and printing any error.. but it seems there is no error as it isn't printing anything :)
I tried to change it with this wav http://www.airwolf.100megsfree.com/airwolf4.wav (and of course changing the TstSnd.wav to airwolf4.wav, placing it in the same folder as TstSnd.wav)
The sound file with the code can be found here:
[http://www.roseindia.net/java/example/java/applet/PlaySoundApplet.shtml]
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class PlaySoundApplet extends Applet implements ActionListener{
  Button play,stop;
  AudioClip audioClip;
  public void init(){
    play = new Button("  Play in Loop  ");
    add(play);
    play.addActionListener(this);
    stop = new Button("  Stop  ");
    add(stop);
    stop.addActionListener(this);
    audioClip = getAudioClip(getCodeBase(), "TstSnd.wav");
  public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae){
    Button source = (Button)ae.getSource();
    if (source.getLabel() == "  Play in Loop  "){
      audioClip.play();
    else if(source.getLabel() == "  Stop  "){
      audioClip.stop();
}

Could the problem have anything to do with your using == to compare strings? Don't do this; use String#equals(...)Bad example I copied over.. but it worked for TstSnd.wav as mentioned.
I think I've found my problem in the following
You cannot play WAV, AU, AIFF, or AU files compressed using ADPCM or other compression schemes. The Java Sound engine supports only linear PCM audio files. Though I'd kinde expect that to throw an error if wrapped in a try catch..
