Hi All,

I have encountered a problem with Creating a Volume Control Slider tutorial on [kirupa.com](http://kirupa.com).

The tutorial is brilliant and I am trying to make some new additions to the file.

I am trying to get the audio file to start playing straight away without any onRelease actions on the play button and the volume to be around 80 when everything loads.

At the moment users have to click the play button and drag the slider to get the audio to play and volume to go up.

I am new to actionscript and flash and any advice would be extremely helpful. Thank you.

All the files can be downloaded from the following link:
