I went to the package website and looked under "issues". Looks like there is a workaround for now.

https://github.com/TaylorSMarks/playsound/issues/150

pip install playsound@git+https://github.com/taconi/playsound
This command can be used temporarily for installing the package tho.

pip install wheel
pip install playsound
this fixed the issue for me
