How do I make it so that a sound is played when a button is pressed?

I would recommend that you do something like this:

// create a SoundChannel variable

var channel:SoundChannel;

// in the library set the AS linkage for your mp3 file to myMP3sound (or change this to match yours)

var myMP3sound:Sound = new WhatSayHorse_mp3();

// play the sound using a call like this based on when your button is pressed in your click handler code:

channel = myMP3sound.play();

// OPTIONAL

// add an event listener to call a function when the sound has completed

channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete);

// Add the fuction and put whatever code in it that you need.

function onPlaybackComplete(evt:Event):void {

       // add the code here that you want executed on sound finished playing.

}
