Hey all,

I have a background sound that I want playing all of the time. I have other sounds that play when a button is clicked. I created a function that plays a particular sound to its’ related button. But inside of the function I also have a stopAllSounds(); function to stop the sounds of the other buttons. And of course, it stops the background sound.

Can anyone tell me a way to keep playing the background sound?

Thanks in advanced.
