There are no "Linkage ID"s in AS3. Class names you are talking about? :)
May be you can do something like:
private function playSound(className:String):void {
var ClassRef:Class = getDefinitionByName(className) as Class;
var snd:Object = new ClassRef();
snd.play();
}

Thanks for responding Ken, but I'm passing a String (linkage id). My
question is really how to create a new instance of the sound when I only
have the linkage identifier as a string? I can't seem to cast it to a
Class.

Hi list...
Silly AS3 question: how do you play a sound with a linkage identifier?
public function playSound(linkageID:String):void{
// these don't work
var snd:Sound = new Sound(linkageID);
var snd:* = new Class(linkageID);
snd.play();
}
Thanks!
