Dependency Injection Question

I'm working on a music player which can play both local and streamed media. To play the files, I'm using a library which has a SoundPlayer class. (https://lsxprime.github.io/soundflow-docs/getting-started/)

To handle file vs streaming, I'm using a switch statement inside my SoundEngine class:
switch (fileType)
  {
    case eFileType.File:
      _player = new SoundPlayer(new StreamDataProvider(File.OpenRead((string)path)));
    break;
            
    case eFileType.Stream:
      _player = new SoundPlayer(new StreamDataProvider((Stream)path));
      break;

I shouldn't be newing up classes inside my SoundEngine, and want to use DI instead. However, since a user can play different files while the (which must be passed into the _player variable), I can't use constructor injection. Is there another way to handle this?
