HELP! sound object stop kills flv sound too

[1stMoogwai]

code:

---

if (!firstTime) {

	_root.introMusic = new Sound();

	_root.introMusic.attachSound("music");

	_root.introMusic.setVolume(50);

	_root.introMusic.start(0, 1);

	firstTime = true;

}



music_btn.onRelease = function() {

	if (!rockNow) {

		_root.introMusic.setVolume(0);

		this.gotoAndStop(2);

		rockNow = true;

	} else {

		_root.introMusic.setVolume(50);

		this.gotoAndStop(1);

		rockNow = false;

	}

};

stop();

This script for my "music on/off" btn kills ALL audio and not just the sounds object audio. It also pauses FLV playback (I'm using the FLVplayback component). Any insite?

I've tried modifying the above AS not using the "_root." to target the obj and also stop() and start() on the obj instead of just volume control. HELP!!!

Thanks,

add (this) to your Sound declaration:

if (!firstTime) {

	_root.introMusic = new Sound(this);

	_root.introMusic.attachSound("music");

	_root.introMusic.setVolume(50);

	_root.introMusic.start(0, 1);

	firstTime = true;

}

I tried that and even switched "this" to "_root" and it still didn't work. The "music off" btn still mutes all FLVs.

Help!

you changed your first line to look like this?

_root.introMusic = new Sound(this);

indeed, I did. I'm attempting to load the MP3 externally and forgo the 'attachSound' function.
... The "_root.introMusic = new Sound(this);" didn't fix the issue at present....

Thanks,

I switched my code to call the sound external and it now works.

code:

---

if (!firstTime) {	

	_root.introMusic = new Sound();

	_root.introMusic.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {

		if (success) {

			_root.introMusic.start();

			_root.introMusic.setVolume(50);

		} else {

			trace("Sound failed");

		}

	};

	_root.introMusic.loadSound("music.mp3", true);

	firstTime = true;

}

stop();

music_btn.onRelease = function() {

	if (!rockNow) {

		_root.introMusic.setVolume(0);

		this.gotoAndStop(2);

		rockNow = true;

	} else {

		_root.introMusic.setVolume(50);

		this.gotoAndStop(1);

		rockNow = false;

	}

};

I hate not finding the proper solution, but I like meeting deadlines more.

Thanks,

you can try this:
var mc = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("mc",1);
_root.introMusic = new Sound(mc);
