Ahh, much improved after placing the progress event listener on the Sound object instead of the loader object, but I still feel like Flex is buffering the entire .mp3 before the isLoading property is flipped to false.
Maybe I'm not considering something here, but seems like all things being equal, buffering 1sec of audio should take the same amount of time regardless of file size, but it seems that particularly with larger files buffering 1sec takes significantly longer. I'm actually still using Flex 2 and the documentation for the SoundLoaderContext says that the bufferTime property is the number of seconds (vs Milliseconds) to buffer and defaults to 1000 (~17mins?). Even if I change this property to 2, I still don't notice any change in the time it takes to buffer each sound and begin playing... Any thoughts? tips? hints? Thanks in advance.
