Are you using “Start” as Sync in the sound properties?

It’s easy. Let’s say you have a movieclip named mc1 and when you click it the sound fades out. The sounds name is sound1.
[AS]
//This is what you write in the main frame
mc1.onRelease = function() {
mc1\_rel=true;
}
\_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (mc1\_rel) {
if (sound1.volume\>0) {
sound1.volume-=1;
} else {
mc1\_rel=false;
}
}
}
[/AS]
