I made 2 sounds: background and button sound.

This is the code:

\_root.onLoad = function() {  
backgroundSound = new Sound(this);  
backgroundSound.attachSound(“sound\_root”);  
backgroundSound.start();  
buttonSound = new Sound(button0);  
buttonSound.attachSound(“sound\_button”);  
}  
\_root.onEnterFrame = function() {  
backgroundSound.onSoundComplete(backgroundSound.start());  
}  
button0.onRelease = function() {  
buttonSound.start();  
}

The problem is the background sound plays but when I click on the button, the button sound doesn’t play.

Did I do something wrong?

Help, please. Thanks

should work :

```auto
_root.onLoad = function() {
backgroundSound = new Sound(this);
backgroundSound.attachSound("sound_root");
backgroundSound.start();
buttonSound = new Sound(this);
buttonSound.attachSound("sound_button");
}
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
backgroundSound.onSoundComplete(backgroundSound.start());
}
button0.onRelease = function() {
buttonSound.start();
}

```
