Read my code again. Isn't that what I did?

Confused,

You have to secify the level you want the sound object to *live in*
When using/creating a sound object in a different level movie, use 'this' as
the target when creating the sound object

//Level1 movie
s = new Sound(this);
s.attachSound("mySound");

//start sound from main timeline within the level 1 movie
on (release) {
s.start();
}

//start sound from level0 movie
on (release) {
_level1.s.start();
}

HTH,
Muzak
