Sound issue on Device

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Hi,

So I built an app for iOS and Android using Corona, and everything is working perfectly except for one strange thing.

I have a fireworks sound on one of the levels and it is refusing to work on a device, it works fine on the simulator. I thought it was the sound file, so i fixed it and used it on another level and its perfectly working on the device using the same code. However it won’t work using the same code and file in the initial place i wanted it on the devices (iPhone/iPad).

Is there any common things I should be looking for?

Let me know if you need to see the code, any help would be appreciated. [import]uid: 136075 topic_id: 30852 reply_id: 330852[/import]

Hello,

I’m working on an audio app and have been dealing with sound a lot. Posting your code that plays the sound would be helpful (the audio.play( … ) part). Also, a screen capture showing the filename of the sound file could be useful as well.

I ran into a very strange problem because of the way I’m building my app using macincloud and dropbox. I updated my sound file name from foo.mp3 to Foo.mp3. Dropbox didn’t bother making updating the file name on my macincloud Mac, which caused the audio file to load fine in my simulator but not on the Mac. I doubt this is your issue, but I thought I’d share. Quadruple check to make sure that your file names match.

Cheers,
