Hi The bottom line is you can't for security reason.
Rationale In order to give access to the microphone, Flash must display the privacy settings dialog and get permission from the user to allow access to the microphone and/or camerae etc. This dialog is integral to the Flash player and is not a part of Director. In order to display the dialog you must have a Flash sprite of at least a minimal size required to display the privacy dialog. (see Lingo Dictionary and Using Director manual or the online help). In order to display said dialog, you must have the sprite set to DTS (Direct To Stage) at least while the dialog is displaying. This prevents malicious users from getting you to click through another sprite and onto a hidden version of the dialog. Each Flash sprite runs independently of each other and I do not believe the settings are shared between sprites.. if so this could be a considered a security risk as well. Hope that helps you understand the issue Sincerely Mark R.
