Hi James, No solutions here... We tried many different things and eventually had to rely on Director playing ALL audio. Same situation here as well, hard to repro. More often on a slow cd or older dvd drive, which makes me think it has something to do with preloading or streaming the audio into the flash xtra. Tried preloading in Dir and Flash with no success. Can you submit to the list the things you noticed that seem to make the issue worse, and I will add to it. Hopefully this way we can start to get to the root of the problem, cause right now audio in flash is just too risky for us.

The main problem for me at the moment is that I can't really begin the process of troubleshooting until I can reproduce the error. Thanks in advance for any insight.
