This should be so simple that I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong, but to me, it seems the “stop” and “pause” sounds don’t work.

I’ve made a home screen for a game and I just want the Intro Music to stop when I go to the other screens.

 ![For thunkable](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/c/c/cc9abfed667381237e0e724fee368c57f35daf56.png)

Is this a known issue?

ok, it seems to be solved through a new variable for the sound and a check of the variable status
