It doesn't show up in the Toolbox, but you have to programmatically instantiate the player and start playback:

C#

private WMPLib.WindowsMediaPlayer m_Player = new WMPLib.WindowsMediaPlayer();

m_Player.URL = @"<File Path>";
m_Player.controls.play();

Implement your own UI controls to control the player.
