I’m having a weird problem with some externally loaded SWFs that contain only audio. They were created with Squeeze 4.3.

When I load them into my movie they drastically slow down the animation of the entire movie. As soon as I stop the audio in the external SWF the rest of the movie’s animation goes back to normal. But if I start the SWF again it slows down again.

My questions are:

- Is anyone else encountering the same problem with audio SWFs?
- Does anybody have any advice on publishing settings for the audio SWFs that may fix the “slow down”? Or any other methods for publishing audio only SWFs?
