In the [.htaccess section of “Snippets”](https://css-tricks.com/snippets/htaccess) check out the title [Force Files to Download (Not Open in Browser)](https://css-tricks.com/snippets/htaccess/force-files-to-download-not-open-in-browser) and add:

AddType application/octet-stream .mp3

Also, there are [WordPress plugins that take care](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/download-shortcode/) this for you.

Hope that helps,
