Help with this code

I use ctypes to play AUDIO using bass.dll found here:
http://www.un4seen.com/
I have gone so far and tried as they advised me at their forum entry here:
http://www.un4seen.com/forum/?topic=9257.0
But I still get errors. Can anyone take code and analyze to point out source of error?
Here is the code, pse ignore any useless comment, I was using the editor as scratch pad too
