Try using "start" for the sync type rather than "event" or "stream." Not 

sure if this will work in a resize situation, but the purpose of "start" is 

for the sound to begin only if it's not already playing.

Yes. Use Telltarget:


Begin TellTarget (target: _level1)

         Go to and Play (label:spin)

End TellTarget


Notice how the target is designated by the level into which the movie was 

loaded.
