The only thing I can think of is that it is most likely
a problem concerning the ApplicationDomain. You probably load the swf into
its own application domain, which means it will use the AbstractPreloader
class of the swf instead of the one in your main application. The solution
here would be to load the swf like this:
var context:LoaderContext = LoaderContext(false,
ApplicationDomain.currentDomain = null, SecurityDomain.currentDomain);
loader.load("my.swf", context);
