The sound plays only for a short while before getting cut off. Because the sound
is set to Stream, it plays only when the playhead moves along the Timeline, and
if there are sufficient frames to play. There is a stop action at frame 9 that stops
the playhead, and hence, stops the sound.
adding frames to the timeline
The next step is to extend the Timeline so that the entire sound (or at least the por-
tions that you desire) plays before the stop action halts the playhead.
1 Click on the Stage to deselect the Timeline, and then place the playhead
between frames 1 and 9 by clicking on the top frame numbers.
2 Choose Insert > Timeline > Frame, or press F5, to insert frames in all the layers
between frames 1 and 9.
3 Insert enough frames so that there are about 50 frames to play the sound before
the stop action in the second keyframe of the actions layer.
4 Choose Control > Test Movie > in Flash Professional.
The sound lasts longer because it has more frames to play before the
playhead stops.
