I have this problem too. It even happens with NSBeep (which someone posted about the other day). Maybe you could 'preflight' your sound by calling setVolume:0.0 then playing it, then restoring the volume. (Of course, the VM system may page out your sound later anyway...). Perhaps CoreAudio has a better solution. -- ____________________________________________________________ Sean McBride, B.
