I was able to get an alias that pointed to an mp3 player to load in the player. I used the following script.
on mouseUp answer file "Select the MP3 file." with type "MP3 files|mp3|Mp3 " set the filename of player "player" to it end mouseUp This allowed me to select the alias but when I checked the player with the property inspector the path was the path to the original. One thing I found was that if the alias has the word 'alias' at the end it would not work I had to make sure it ended with .mp3. If you want to make sure the open file dialog allows you to open mp3 files you have to put with type "MP3 files|mp3|Mp3 " Note there is a space before the final quote.
