...restarts it from beginning if it was it already playing

Don't call play() if it's already playing, you won't hear anything if you restart the sound every frame.

May want to use an event like the KeyPressed Event (https://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/2.5/window-events.php#the-keypressed-and-keyreleased-events) instead.
