ok.. i see your problem.. :) um... an easy work around (i think)is inside

your sound movie.. have 3 key frames..


 first one blank with a [stop]...

 second with your sound on it and a [stop]..

 third blank with [stop all sounds] and [goto and stop frame 1] on it.


i think thats what you mean.. good luck
