Upload the .swi so we can take a look. It seems there may be another PlaySound action in there somewhere.

Hmm? I never had problems with this...Somebody help? I don't understand what's happening, but personally (v2) I just use on.Release > stop.sound"whatever.snd" (and set it to the right values) then it works, somebody help! I don't want this problem ever!

If the original action is called from a loop then
each time the loop recurs the sound will start again.

example

onFrame (1) {
    playSound("n.wav");
}
onFrame (2) {
    gotoSceneAndPlay("<current scene>",1);
}

After your stop sound is initiated
the movie recieves a new instruction to play the sound.
because the movie is looped.

One way to insure that the action to call the sound
is not re-initiated is to place a stop in either your movie
or set the loop after the initial play sound frame action.

onFrame (1) {
    playSound("n.wav");
}
onFrame (3) {
    gotoSceneAndPlay("<current scene>",2);
}

If you want to set your sound to loop then do so via the
sound effects window setting the amount of loops.
