How do I measure the sample rate of an imported file in Mathematica?

I imported the WAV file:

solo = Import["solo.wav"]

When I wrote:

SampleRate[solo] 

I received: Sound

But I just need a number like 28.000 to be returned.

solo = Import[ "ExampleData/rule30.wav" ]

Mathematica graphics

Cases[solo, (SampledSoundFunction | SampledSoundList)[__, r_] :>  r, Infinity][[1]]

44100

One can also use Import[] to directly query the *.wav file's sample rate, like so:

Import["ExampleData/rule30.wav", "SampleRate"]
   44100

The sample rate is the second element in solo. The first element (i.e., solo[[1, 1]]) is the waveform data.

solo = Import["ExampleData/rule30.wav"];
solo[[1, 2]]

44100

For Mathematica 11:

AudioSampleRate[myAudio]
