Does anyone have an easier way of playing sounds?

I've been learning AS3 this year and so far the most tricky and annoying thing for me is the way the Sound Channel works.

I have a movieclip holder with around 20 frames, with animation on each frame.

I have been coding my sound effects, but soon I'll need a Voiceover track on each frame. I don't want to have

to write tons of code for each one, playing them and stopping them if the user toggles back and forth.

Is there a simple way of doing this? I tried adding sounds on the timeline using 'event', but they don't stop

playing if you go to a new frame.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Matt
