Now, I don’t know is it just me being stupid (which more likely to be the case), or is it something else?

Here is the problem: I recorded a sound that I want to be played when people roll over the buttons in the menu. I recorded it and exported it as .mp3 and it sounds good when I play it in Sound Forge and Cool Edit. But, when I import it into the movie it sounds horrible, there is a great loss of quality. Then, I exported it as a .wav, but it wouldn’t play at all in the flash movie. I wrote this script to play the sound:

mySound\_sound = new Sound();  
mySound\_sound.loadSound(“click.mp3”, false);  
var i;  
var numbtn = 7;  
for(i=0;i\<numbtn;i++){  
var btn = this[“button”+i+"\_btn"];  
btn.onRollOver = function(){  
mySound\_sound.start(0, 0);  
}  
};

The script works fine, and it plays the sound but it sounds horrible. What could be the problem?
