I have this sound file in my 255W but can't get it to work.

The POI file is: TimHortons.csv

The sound file is: TimHortons.mp3

Why doesn't it work?

According to the Garmin chart the 255W doesn't have an mp3 player. So in order to use sound files you have to convert them to wav. If you search there are quite few threads discussing how to convert an mp3 to wav.
