With wxWidgets such as with any another widget toolkit i.e. : MFC, QT, FLTK etc, in most cases you don't need to manipulate system API directly.

Toolkit will do it for you in the same time, if you need to combine toolkit with some system API, tool kits usually provide an interface which can be used for integration.

In case of wxWidgets you can obtain a window HWND created by wxWindow with wxWindow::GetHandle. To obtain current module, you can use wxGetInstance

Anyway, wxWidgets provides API to interact with Sound API, with wxSound

There is an example
