Hi

I have created a volume slider using the following tutorial: [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/volume\_slider.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/volume_slider.htm)

However, the sound does not play by default when the swf file is loaded. The sound is muted by default. How can you make the sound be played automatically when the swf file is loaded?

cheers
