    Sounds like your Mp3 is a lot longer than your movie.

    Try making an empty movie of 3 frames and name it what you want "holder.swf". Frame 2 load movie at level 1, "mymovie.swf" and also load movie at level 2 "myMp3.swf". Frame 3,"stop movie"
    Now save your original movie without sound "mymovie.swf" and make another movie with only the soundtrack and pad out the frames to the length of the mp3 track "MyMp3.swf". You can now loop your original movie and the Mp3 movie should play till the end of the track. When you play your "holder.swf" it will load your other two movies and should play normally. You may have to pad out your holder movie to the Mp3 track length as well and also drop the "stop" command but try it this way first.

    Use Views > Actions and Sounds. It will display the overlap of the sound with key frame.
