In case if you have a folder named audio in www folder. You may access the local file test.mp3 in it using the code.

media = new Media('audio/test.mp3');

You might be trying to call Media before the deviceready event fires.

Something like the below might help:

<script type="text/javascript">

var myMedia = null;
document.addEventListener("deviceready",onDeviceReady,false);

function onDeviceReady () {
    myMedia = new Media("/android_asset/www/fire.mp3", 
        function(){
            if (myMedia) {
                myMedia.stop();
                myMedia.release();
            }
        }, 
        function(error){
            console.log(error.message);
        }
    );
}

</script>
