I have five sound effects I need to play on Android. Originally I converted them to mp3 but only one would play, so I started working with .wav files, with the same results (but at least I got an error in the result with wavs -- sound format not supported.) These are all mono channel sounds.

PCM/Wave is wave files Ogg Vorbis is .ogg - you could try that one - very good mp3-like format. FLAC is another specialized compressed format - I would not use this because not a lot of 3rd party support for it. AAC is a sony format and is used with mp4 files AMR is more specialized
