The C-style struct initialization in there is a problem. Try 
making it

immutable Sound[string] soundLibrary  =   // line 148
[
    "SCRATCH"          : Sound("scratch.wav", 
SoundType.SOUND_EFFECT, null ),
    "BACKGROUND_TRACK" : Sound("beat.wav",    SoundType.MUSIC,    
null ),
    "HIGH"             : Sound("high.wav",    
SoundType.SOUND_EFFECT, null
    )
];

using positional values instead of named. Moreover, note that 
such initialization needs to be done in a function, not at global 
scope. you may need to declare it outside then initialize it in a 
static constructor.
