try going to Edit > Preferences > Audio I/O and ensure that the radio button for Software Playthrough is checked on. Also since you have plugged in a USB device the entire audio services have been handed over to the USB device - and as you observe the usb tt has no speakers. So you wil need to go to...

Sounds like it isn't an MP3 - Audacity does this when you try to import filetypes that it doesn't recognize. Audcity can import WAV/AIFF, MP3 and Ogg files (and in 1.3 additionnally FLAC). Any other filetype must be converted to a recognisable filetype (preferrably WAV) prior to import into Audacity...

Audacity cannot import/read Midi - though I understand that this functionality is being considered by the developers for future incorporation into Audacity. You may want to go to the Audacity Wiki feature request list and add your...
