Background sound not playing

[ben_stilwell]

I've got a game I made just to play with AS3. But I'm having an issue with the sound.

Playing the swf file will play the sound, but when embedded I hear nothing.

The code for calling the sound:

import flash.media.SoundMixer;
SoundMixer.stopAll();

import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.media.SoundLoaderContext;
import flash.net.URLRequest;

var s:Sound = new Sound();
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("bomb.mp3");
var context:SoundLoaderContext = new SoundLoaderContext(8000, true);
s.load(req, context);
s.play(0,1000);

The embed code:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0" width="550" height="400" id="bomb" align="middle">

<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="false" />
<param name="movie" value="bomb/bomb.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="bomb/bomb.swf" quality="high" width="550" height="400" name="bomb" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

The problem is that your swf is in a folder. Where is the bomb.mp3 located? The path to the mp3 is not correct.

bomb.mp3 is located in the folder bomb with bomb.swf

Then probably you need to change to this

URLRequest("bomb/bomb.mp3");

I had changed it and it still wasn't working. So I moved the mp3 file up a directory and it worked fine. I'm not sure why it didn't work with bomb/bomb.mp3

thanks
