Hello !

I have a very annoying bug… I load a SWF and monitor the loading progress using

```auto

_swfLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onSwfLoaded);
_swfLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onSwfProgress);

```

The thing is, right before the SWF is fully loaded (around 97%) i can hear it starting ! (it has audio embed in the timeline).

Then at 100% the clip starts and the audio restarts.  
How to prevent this else than muting the general volume??? How come a SWF not fully loaded starts to play???
