You can only dynamically load mp3’s but you can import .wav’s and another file type, passes my mind right now. Try looking in your Flash documentation 🙂

.mov sound-only files work, aiff with quicktime should be ok too…  
best to import wav (not compressed) as you’ll export to mp3 compression, = loss of quality), if you’re not loading the songs in…
