OverflowError: cannot fit 'int' into an index-sized integer

[vipinv23]

Hello
I am running a simple audio read program:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import scipy.io.wavfile
rate, data = scipy.io.wavfile.read('file.wav')

plt.plot(data)
plt.show()

but its giving following error:

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/pi/wav_try.py", line 3, in <module>
    rate, data = scipy.io.wavfile.read('file.wav')
  File "/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/scipy/io/wavfile.py", line 264, in read
    is_big_endian, mmap)
  File "/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/scipy/io/wavfile.py", line 129, in _read_data_chunk
    data = numpy.frombuffer(fid.read(size), dtype=dtype)
OverflowError: cannot fit 'int' into an index-sized integer

Please guide how to solve it?

The documentation of scipy.io.wavfile.read() says

* This function cannot read wav files with 24 bit data.

Couldn't this be the cause of the error?
