hi everybody

i've got a little problem with a movie i'm working on
it's an old dir that i'm updating and upgrading but i didn't create it so i'm
just trying to use the scripts that the previous programmers wrote.. (and it's
hard!)

i have the main movie that launches some sounds
there could be more than one active sound channel at a time
the sounds are cast members (a cast for the music - a cast of the speakers - a
cast for the interface sounds)
usually there is a background music looping and serials spekers depending on
the user choices
sound volume is managed by an external movie which is opened as a MIAW
the volume movie actually runs correctly (the volume is correctly set)

the problem is that when the main movies launches the volume movie as MIAW
the current playing sounds stop (both the background music and the speaker)
so when the volume MIAW is closed
the looping music does not start anymore..

what i would like to know is WHY the audio stops
it just seems that the volume movie takes the audio channels for its use and
forgets about the previously playing sounds..
is it correct?
is it normal that a MIAW stops the audio from the movie which launched it?
maybe there is an error in the scripts that launches the sounds?
are there some particular settings in the MIAW launching that i must set in
order to let the audio play continously?

i have found a lot discussions about the sounds stopping during the exit from
a MIAW
but i can't find anything on that topic..

thanks in advance for your answers and suggestions
