Question

Trouble playing sound on iOS

I've got an app that uses the usual Sound and SoundChannel classes to load an mp3 and play it. It works fine in the mobile emulator and it works fine on Android devices. But I cannot get any sound on an iPad.

I can confirm that the mp3 loaded, by listening for that event. I tried a local mp3 and loading one from the web, with no difference.

What am I overlooking?

Many thanks -

The basic code is this:

            _sound = new Sound();
             _sound.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
            _sound.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete);
            _sound.load(new URLRequest(songToPlay));
            _sc = _sound.play();

I didn't think the ipad could load any external files. I know it blocked my external swfs.. I'm not sure though, but that's why I load sounds from

my library. I make everything self contained.
