help: play and stop sound/music

Audio and Graphics
#1

I have a problem with background music on my app
I have 4 scene
main menu, select game, story, gameplay
I set the same background music for main menu, select game and story with this code:
 

bg\_sound = audio.loadSound("sound/music.mp3") audio.play(bg\_sound,{ channel=1, loops=-1 })

I write this code in main_menu
no local, no dispose. so that bg_sound still playing till the story scene.
the problem is when I pause the gameplay, I give an option to back to select game
how do I play bg_sound again on the select_game scene??
if I load the bg_sound in select game and story scene the sound will play from the start every time I go to that scene

sorry for my bad English, I hope you guys understand and can help

Take a look at this excellent write up.

The sound is handled independent of your scene using the above, meaning you have complete control of it regardless of your storyboard actions.

Hope this helps,
