  • So, I stopped the music tag "myMusic" both on start and on end of layout. Then on start of layout... below the stop "myMusic" tag, I replay the sound by verifying if the audio tag is not playing.

    Somehow the sound "myMusic" continues to play for few ticks if you RESTART the layout,

    so the condition => 'audio "myMusic" is not playing' never goes through since it still detects "myMusic" playing.

    This happens only when you use restart layout or use "Go to layout" on the same layout.

    Is this a bug or what? How can the sound be stopped without delaying any restart?

  • I just recreated this project for fun and the weird thing is that it seems to work every other time - i.e. start the project:

    1. music plays
    2. press space
    3. music stops
    4. layout restarts
    5. music doesn't restart
    6. press space
    7. music stops
    8. layout restarts
    9. music restarts
    10. repeat

    I even inserted a "wait" as the first action in event 3, and regardless of how long I wait, the same behaviour is observed - perhaps there's a clue there?

    Hello, thanks for testing from your side.

    Yes, I noticed that the sound doesn't stop playing instantly, after using

    => stop "audioTag"

    A wait of 0.05-0.1s is working after stopping the audio and checking again if it is still playing, else it will just detect it playing a few times.

    But there's no guarantee how it will work on old devices

    I just filed the bug, thanks for the link
