gmusicbrowser is a library-based player, wav files typically do not have 
metadata, so they do not really belong in a library and thus support for wav 
files was never intended.
I might add some support for wav files in the future, depending on changes that 
would make this easy, but it's not really planned.

If you want to add wav files to your library, I recommend converting them to 
flac.
If you just want to play some random file on your system, I'm afraid you'll 
have to use another player. There is a lot of odd sound file formats that will 
probably never be supported, gmb's intent is not to play every file format, but 
to make the best use of the metadata of your library.
