Comment(by AlexL):

 The mime type is set correctly to .wav with Record Version 31. However,
 Watch and Listen is still unable to play it, with the error (Some
 components are not available to provide playback of this presentation on
 your system.) Again, probably a codec that is missing.

 The other interesting thing is that when you drag an audio file from the
 Record activity onto the clipboard, the audio file is automatically put in
 the journal under the name: Audio by {name of laptop}. This file has no
 extension, and the only choice for opening it is with etoys, which is
 probably because etoys thinks it can open anything. The audio on the
 clipboard can be opened with either Watch and Listen or Browse, with only
 Browse successfully playing it. This file has the .wav extension. Also,
 the file can be added to the journal, and works the same way there,
 opening in both W&L and Browse.
