As explained on the wikipedia page you referenced, this isn't PCM. To play it with LMS, you'll need to install a CLI tool able to output such a file in a format LMS understands to a pipe (follow the links on wikipedia to find one, or duckduckgo), and create 2 files (custom-convert.conf and custom-types.conf) which tell LMS how to handle such files.
