If this is Windows have you tried killing soundKeepDevice on startMovie?:
on startMovie
the soundKeepDevice = FALSE
END startMovie
Only one sound driver on the designed-and-used-by-geniuses Windows
platform can be in use at ay time, and Director seems to be a little
slow on the uptake when it comes to surrendering one so another can
load. Since MP3 and WAV surely use different mix outs, this might do
the trick for you.
