I don't see the need to put them into movie clips; why not just put them in

stopped keyframes? Movie Clips loop by default.


To avoid a sound being placed on top of itself, set its sync parameter to

"start" rather than "stream" or "event."


To prevent a sound being placed on top of other sounds, include a "stop all

sounds" action before the new sound action.


Remember that when sound is set to "stream" you should allow a 2-second

silence/buffer after the sound before initiating other sounds (Windows

requires this).
