Hello everybody, i have an issue with sound, here is my test app  
 ![sound](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/d/1/d1a81bee71cdec5e1fdd40a721d3eefe53e92b1b.jpeg)

It works fine on Web preview but, on Live, the sound is reproduced only 40 times, then the phone is muted for the remaining 10 times, and also does not play the final default sound outside the loop. I tried many times and always the same, muting after 40 sounds. Is there a way to solve this?  
Thanks in advance

What is the duration of the Di\_ng.mp3 sound file?

What happens if you repeat the loop 39 times? 40 times? 41 times? Just wondering if there’s something special about 50. It should work of course! Just trying to troubleshoot where the issue might be.

I wonder if there’s a memory issue or a data caching issue of some sort but probably only Thunkable Staff would know about that.

Any chance you can share the project link?

Hiii  
Di\_ng sound has a duration of 1 second.  
I also tried like this

 ![sound2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/e/7/e7fe0337d19c28c4c8aa70239aa296cce0f903c9.jpeg)

that is, 3 different sounds, each played 15 times. Then again, on Web preview all goes fine, including the final sound outside the loops, while on Live (Samsung Galaxy S20 ultra) first two sounds are played correctly (so, 30 playing events), while the third is played just 10 times (total: 40) and then nothing more, including the final sound. Seems like the device can play up to 40 sound events in total and no more. I’m perplexed.  
Here’s the test project

Hmm… the sound plays all 50 times on my iPhone 11. Sorry, I don’t have an Android phone at the moment to test this with.

Thanks for testing, at least we know that on iOs the issue isn’t there. Btw, i tried with a different Android device (Oppo), downloaded the latest Thunkable client, and same issue: 40 sounds and nothing more. Any help?

No one has a solution? Is it a bug? Staff?
