I have a button that has some nice filter effects as you roll over it, but on mouseDown, it plays an audio file. I got it to work OK, except the user can keep on hitting the “button” (it’s not a flash button) and the audio plays over itself. I want it to play through before allowing it again.  
I’m sure it’s probably a simple solution, but I can’t find it - and worse, I can’t figure it out on my own.

Yeah, I’m a newbie!

Thanks.
