hey - having a bit of a problem targeting an external audio file. it works locally but as soon as i put it on the server it breaks and i get this error:  
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error.

suggesting that the path to the file isn’t right. here’s the path:  
…/audio/testSound.mp3

working fine locally, no good on the server. any ideas?

thanks :hugegrin:
