This looks correct to me. The issue might be something else.

Are your script files properly formatted? They will only work in a clean text file. Even if they're named .hps, they might still have an odd format if you used a program like Word or such.

Are your in-game names and files matching? For example "Script_1", does that area (?) actually exist and is it named exactly that?

You can try to add a debug message (if you have your dev environment set up) and see if the code runs. Maybe you just can't hear the sound. Maybe it's too low or your game sounds are off.

Well, you can delete the main_settings.cfg file in your Documents location. It will regenerate when you start the game.
