Playing audio clips and sound effects

Qt Quick provides the SoundEffect type to play short sound effects with minimum latency. This is especially good for things such as button click sounds, virtual keyboard sounds, and alert tones as part of a rich and engaging multimedia experience.

import QtQuick.Window 2.12
import QtMultimedia 5.12

width: 320
height: 240
title: qsTr("Play Sound")

Text {
text: "Click Me!";
font.pointSize: 24;
width: 150; height: 50;

SoundEffect {
id: playSound
source: "soundeffect.wav"
}
MouseArea {
id: playArea
anchors.fill: parent
onPressed: { playSound...
