What hardware do you use? Does it have DAC's? Otherwise it will be hard to playback samples.

MakeCode doesn't have support for playing back pre-recorded audio files. This can be done with .wav or .mp3 files in CircuitPython, or you can add hardware such as the Audio FX board https://www.adafruit.com/product/2133 and trigger it from the CPX running MakeCode.
