You need to use and never() then to make it fire once.

If you want it to repeat it, the elapsed time must be of longer duration than the period of execution.

IE a 2 minute wave (=120 seconds) the recommended elapsed time would be 121 - IE:

if past() and elapse(121) and waveready() and never() then

if past() start playing immediately the player enters the game
elapse(121) wait 121 seconds
waveready() tells the engine to wait until there is no other sound playing.
never() then execute once
