Hi,
I am having issues with sound and soundsc (I have a mac: Lion 10.7.2, using matlab R2011a).
Whenever I try to play sounds using sound or soundsc, I get the following error:
-----
Warning: The following error was caught while executing 'asyncio.Channel' class destructor:
Too many input arguments.
> In audioplayer.audioplayer>audioplayer.initialize at 241
In audioplayer.audioplayer>audioplayer.audioplayer at 194
In audiovideo/private/playsnd at 15
In sound at 58
In soundsc at 48
??? Error using ==> playsnd at 18
Too many input arguments.
Error in ==> sound at 58
playsnd(y,fs,bits);
Error in ==> soundsc at 48
sound(varargin{:})
--
an example of code in which I get that error, using one of Matlab's sample sounds:
load gong.mat;
sound(y, Fs);
I've been able to easily use sound and soundsc before. Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks!

This is surprising to me. I would contact TMW directly. While MATLAB and sound is sometimes flaky, it usually doesn't crash like this. I don't use a mac so I cannot confirm your problem.

Having the same problem with audioread function in Windows 7 32-bit OS. It used to work on this same machine but now I tried different wav files. Everytime the problem is same.

Yes, it keeps happening to me, too. Windows 7, 64-bit, Matlab R2014a. I don't need it very urgently, so for the time being, I'll do nothing about it, but if you had an resolution for the problem, I'd be interested!
