How to Play Sound Effects With A Plugin

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
1

Hello, developers! I am trying to make a plugin and add some sound effects but none of them have been working. I used the document article linked to make it work: SoundService:PlayLocalSound. I tried this and the audio still does not play. I have read through other articles and none of them help with what I am trying to do. The audio I am using is not owned by me. Thank you for any help in advance!

local toolbar = plugin:CreateToolbar("Discoro Feedback Hub!")
local SoundService = game:GetService("SoundService")

local gui = script.Parent.Parent.MainUI
gui.Parent = game.CoreGui

local menuButton = toolbar:CreateButton(
	"Open/Close the Discoro Feedback Hub!",
	"Explore the Discoro Feedback Hub!",
	"",
	"Open/Close the Discoro Feedback Hub!"
)

local function playLocalSound(soundId)
	-- Create a sound
	local sound = Instance.new("Sound")
	sound.SoundId = soundId
	sound.Parent = gui
	-- Play the sound locally
	SoundService:PlayLocalSound(sound)
	-- Once the sound has finished, destroy it
	sound.Ended:Wait()
	sound:Destroy()
end

menuButton.Click:Connect(function()
	if gui.MainFrame.Visible == false then
		gui.MainFrame.Visible = true
		gui.BackgroundFrame.Visible = true
		playLocalSound("rbxassetid://7143514450")
	else
		gui.MainFrame.Visible = false
		gui.BackgroundFrame.Visible = false
		playLocalSound("rbxassetid://7143514450")
	end
end)

I have tried that method and it still does not work.

local sound = your_Sound_Path_Here:Clone()
sound.PlayOnRemove = true;
sound.Parent = script -- if nil, the sound will not play.
sound:Destroy()
