Put you sound On and Sound Off in frames 2 and 3 of your Sound movie

clip (MC) and you will eliminate this problem.

Normally, going back to an MC will not affect the MC, but the exception

is if there is a sound (on or off) in the first frame.

Of course if you go to a frame before an MC it will always be reset.


Also, using the Sound event Start will not restart sounds that are

already playing.
