You can use BASS sound library if you wish.
Just GET it OFF out my mind!!
I'm not sure about the licensing on BASS, although it may not matter for you project. It's rather popular though and as it's atleast somewhat commercial, I would expect the support to be pretty decent.
I would use SFML though, which uses OpenAL. SDL would be the other obvious choice for me, I'm not sure what it uses though.
Thanks Walker! my game can now play .wav sounds!
OpenAL is easy enough to use on its own so I would use it. You will also want to get freealut since this can load WAV files. It is outside of the scope of OpenAL to load various file formats so you will have to either create loaders or download third party ones in order to load sounds/music.
