Looping audio throughout without it overlapping?

[efreya1995]

I want to loop audio throughout my project, so I have simply placed the audio on the timeline and used Properties to make it loop. However, when I use a button to return to the first frame of my project, the music starts playing over itself. How do I avoid this? I looked for solutions, some suggested forgoing the timeline and using ActionScript to play the audio, but I can't seem to find instructions with the code to do that and make it looping. Would appreciate any help! Thanks

assign your sound a class (or linkage id) in the library panel (eg, Sound1) and use:

var alreadyDefined:Boolean;

if(!alreadyDefined){

alreadyDefined=true;

var sound1:Sound=new Sound1();

sound1.play();

}
