POExternally loaded sounds echoes in certain browsers

copied!<p>I'm struggeling with a problem where, in Chrome on Mac and in Chrome, Opera and Safari on PC, it appears to be playing sounds twice, generating an unwanted echo-effect with a rather random delay(always under half a second though).</p> <p>I have 2 swf-files that communictes through a LocalConnection, the main swf simply calls a function on the second swf and passing a url to an mp3-file as parameter. The second swf then loads the file and onComplete plays it.</p> <p>This works perfectly on IE(that's a first) and Firefox on both mac and PC but echoes as mentioned above.</p> <p>I even implemented a double-check to make sure a sound wouldn't play if a sound is already playing.</p> <p>Some sample code:</p> <pre><code>var audio:Sound; var isPlayingSound:Boolean = false; var soundURL:String; public function lcRecieve(url:String = ""):void{ soundURL = url; if (soundOn && !isPlayingSound){ playSound(); } } public function playSound():void { if(!isPlayingSound){ audio = new Sound(new URLRequest(soundURL)); audio.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onSoundComplete); } } public function onSoundComplete(e:Event):void{ audio.play(0, 1).addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, soundFinnishedPlaying); isPlayingSound = true; } private function soundFinnishedPlaying(e:Event):void { e.target.removeEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, soundFinnishedPlaying); audio = null; isPlayingSound = false; } </code></pre> <p>Anyone stumbeled upon this problem before? I'm very much lost.</p>
