The AS3 swf needs to call stop on its sound. You'll have to modify that swf

I listen for an ESC key hit that is supposed to end the movie. I se tthe image source to null and remove all event listeners. The movie dissapears so you can't see it anymore which is all good. The problem is that the sound carries on playing. I have tried calling stop on the movie and calling stop on all it's children but the sound carris on playing. I have tired this code to stop it but it doesn't work: this extends an Image public function stop(e:Event = null):void { stopMovieClip(this as DisplayObjectContainer) source = null; removeEventListener("animationFinished",onAnimationFinished); dispatch.dispatchEvent(new InfoEvent(InfoEvent.INTRO_MOVIE_END)); } private function stopMovieClip(movieClip:DisplayObjectContainer):void { for (var i:int = 0; i < movieClip.numChildren; i++) { var currentComponent:Object = movieClip.getChildAt(i); if(currentComponent is MovieClip) { trace(getQualifiedClassName(currentComponent)); var clip:MovieClip = currentComponent as MovieClip; trace("frame: " + clip.currentFrame + " : " + clip.totalFrames); clip.stop(); } if(currentComponent is DisplayObjectContainer) stopMovieClip(currentComponent as DisplayObjectContainer); } } to which I get this output: IntroMoviePlayer_introAnimation frame: 0 : 0 Introduction_fla::MainTimeline frame: 1 : 1 Introduction_fla::LogoAnimtoIntroTransitionMC_1 frame: 36 : 2016 Introduction_fla::b1MC_2 frame: 1 : 1 flash.display::MovieClip frame: 1 : 1 flash.display::MovieClip frame: 1 : 1 flash.display::MovieClip frame: 1 : 1 Introduction_fla::b2MC_6 frame: 1 : 1 flash.display::MovieClip frame: 1 : 1 flash.display::MovieClip frame: 1 : 1 How can I stop this completly?
