Play sound the first time only

Question

HelloI have an As3 simple game with navigation buttons. It starts off with short intro with sound. When the game loads and the player dies it goes to retry screen with button which when is pressed goes back to the game. The problem is that when that happens flash plays the music from the short intro when returning to the game. How Do I stop this from happening. Currently I have no code for the sound. I just added the music directly to the frame with the intro and that's it. So what code do I write for the sound to execute only once?

Either stretch the music layer out to the entire main timeline and configure that layer to loop only 1 time (thus returning to frame 1 doesn't "change a keyframe"), do not return back to frame 1, or use code to play the sound. If the latter is the choice then there is no shortage of examples of how to play:
