[Xerte] 2.x Double hit with onSoundComplete

I'm pretty sure the sounds were colliding after page turn.
Or at least if I blocked the page turn, I do not get a double hit.
Is it using reset() on the sound?

Maybe because the sound is being killed when the page turns? There
is code in the engine that does that on each page turn: it dives the content
and stops sounds / videos and some other stuff.

It is being called, then a templated page turn happens.



I think I may know what is happening, but I solved the original issue another
way.

If you advanced the pages quickly enough, sounds were not happening when they
should.

I figured it must be a collision (trying to play a sound that was still
loaded/in progress.

Since I didn't have AWunloadSoundDriver handy, ;-) I used a reset() at the top
of the play logic and that seems to have cured it.



But for the archives, I think it may not have been a double hit on the same
event trap.

The template created identical event traps at the bottom of each page.

So I think on page turn, the page 1 trap fired, then on sound completion in
page 2, it fired that one.

Though that still shouldn't happen, e.g. why would the page 1 trap fire if the
sound wasn't complete?

How is the sound being
stopped to trigger the two events? Just playing to the end and then stopping?
Or are you stopping it some other way?

Anyone have any ideas why an onSoundComplete
event would be triggering twice?



Just a little beep when the user hits a button.

I get 1 beep, but my event catcher is triggering twice.
