The WSL environment does not support audio, but it can be enabled by installing the PulseAudio server on Windows following this guide. https://x410.dev/cookbook/wsl/enabling-sound-in-wsl-ubuntu-let-it-sing/
With the latest wslu package installed the starting Ubuntu app detects the running PulseAudio server and enables audio. sudo apt install --yes wslu
sudo apt-get install alsa-tools-gui pavumeter pavucontrol
