Even if it would have worked it is not a good thing to do. Many browsers tend to ignore or restrict use of the embed tag due to the laughable vulnerabilities Windows has that can be taken advantage of through it. The embed tag was never meant to be used to play music or run videos in a browser window. It was meant to launch propper standalone aplications to handle them. Which is not what you want to do. And is even considdered bad nettiquite. It also raises all sorts of browser compatability issues for your page.

You should be able to use Ogg in XHTML using the object tag:

<object data="sound.ogg" type="application/ogg">

But AFAIK there is no browser supporting it yet and I'm not sure if application/ogg really is the Ogg MIMEtype (look through the Vorbis mail archives to find an answer).
