Hi all, I have a python script I want to use that plays a sound file at some point. It looks like it calls for something called playsound, which fails to install:

` $ pip install playsound
Collecting playsound

Getting requirements to build wheel ... error

Hi @frozen905 , i hope my answer will be helpful😀

First, Upgrade your pip version to the latest version by running the command "pip install --upgrade pip" and retry it.
If it still doesn't work out, install the required build dependencies for playsound by running the command "pip install build-essential libasound2-dev" -> Then try installing playsound again by running the command "pip install playsound"

Hey there,
I had this problem as well and came across a solution as,
Firstly you need to upgrade setuptools wheel

step 1. command - ( pip install --upgrade setuptools wheel )
step 2. command - ( pip install playsound )

Hopefully, this will def fix it!!

@shreyaspawar05
thanks. your recommendation 'step 1.' helped me.

Before I command 'step 1.', I typed in following command.

( python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip )

thanks again. :)
