Is it possible to stop all sounds that are currently playing in a movie and at the same time stop future sounds that the playhead will encounter on the timeline?

Here is the code I’m using on the ‘mute’ button now:  
[AS]  
mute\_mc.onPress = function() {  
this.\_visible = false;  
stopAllSounds();  
//fadeout();  
};  
[/AS]
