Native sound attached to a movieClip will play for only one second

Issue


Only one second of a native sound plays in the Flash Lite Emulator when attached to a movieClip whose frame playhead stops before the sound has finished playing.

This issue only occurs with native Flash Lite sounds (uncompressed MP3, ADPCM and PCM). MIDI is not affected.

Reason


This is currently a limitation of the Flash Lite 1.1 Device Emulator that may be addressed in a future release of Flash Lite. The sound should play as expected when the SWF is run on a supported device.

Ref: 140779

Solution


The only way to hear the sound play back completely in the Emulator is to ensure the playhead does not stop before the sound has completed playback by adding additional frames to the movieClip timeline.
