Vista - Windows Media Center Unknown Audio Error on Music in Library

Windows Media Center on Vista Home Premium, When I access my Music library and
when I pick a song or album to play, It gives me a error, "unknown audio
error has occurred 80040155." now video's play fine with there music. CD's
will not play either, I get the same error. Windows Media Player 11 plays
fine for music and videos.

Well with no ones help on my thread here, I did fix the problem, Some one
else back in early September had a similar problem, they were directed to
this address,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/938928, it was close but not my problem, so
I type in "Windows Media center Audio error" in the serch box took me then to
me to TechNet Forums with others having the same erorr 80040155 and there is
a hot fix that worked great for me.
In Accessories, Right click on Comand Prompt Run as administrator, in the
command prompt, type or paste C:\WINDOWS\system32>regsvr32.exe wmp.dll and
(make sure to put the space in between 32 and wmp)
An info box will appear. Click Ok then restart.
Bingo! it worked,
Thanks to TechNet Forums.

Please note that running "regsvr32 wmp.dll" on Vista breaks a number of
things.

You would have to at the least reset all the following. Please try to avoid
registering wmp.dll on Vista. Thanks!

zachd do you have another solution to the media center for the error 80040155
my media player workds fine but the media center says i have no songs in the
library but they are listed. they just won't play. the regsvr won't even work
for me .

0x80040155 is "Error: Interface not registered" and implies some component
is now broken or badly installed to your system.

What software was updated/removed/added before this error started happening?

Hi zachd [MSFT]
Thanks for the reply, the "regsvr32 wmp.dll"worked for awhile, went back to
no audio found, so I edited the Registry with the format WMP11.AssocoFiles.*
* you listed below, rebooted, and it works fine now, even better.
Thanks Again.

I would love to know how you get into that state, and what the registry
delta was between the working and the broken system. =\

Thanks for the update. =)

Which specific subkeys were set to "ASXFile"? I wrote most of the system -
it's simply a bug in wmp.dll that it will register the XP specific prog IDs
there. But registering wmp.dll by hand was never a "supported" scenario,
which is why it slipped through the cracks. I filed a bug on this for the
future. =\
