I would approach this one differently.

I would create a movieclip(1) and then within the movie a button with a hit state so that it cannot be seen.
This button would have actions on it that could then tell itself to move aswell as others as it in inside the movieclip(1)...
Inside the movieclip(1) you would have a movieclip(2) for the over state and a movieclip(3) for your down state and so on. You could then tell them to play or whatever when you either rollOver or Release ect.

Hope this helps.
