I am trying to make a button play a sound, but the sound will not play on the app. I have tried uploading it to the files first, it just does not work.

Hi, @parkerverranzbw! 👋

Okay…  
Try deleting your sound file, & add it again here -

Hi there,

Is your Sound component’s source loaded when you open the app or do you use blocks to load the source during the app’s run time?

If it’s the latter, you will need to give the source time to load before playing it.

The **On Source Loaded** block exists for this reason!

Here are some example blocks:
