Set sound volume in Alice 2.2

Hey guys,

sorry for my bad english

I have a big problem with Alice:

We have to program a x-max e-card. In this e-card we have a few snowmen, which shall play a few instruments (only the sound, no moves). My idea is that "When the world starts" all of the snowman are playing their instrument, but the sound i muted. To hear them play I want to "When the mouse is clicked on (Drums)", the drums are not muted anymore and you can hear them.

How can i set the volume to "1" without starting the sound file from the beginning?

I tried it with the normal "When the mouse is clicked" and the "If/Else", but every time it started from the beginning, so the sounds with the other instruments didn't match and it all sounded like crap :-(

THX

Greetings

post your world so people can actually see what you are trying to do

Okay... I post the file.

My plan is:

There are a few snowmen with instruments. Each instrument is in the front of the "band" as a "taskbar". If you klick on the instrument in the taskbar, the snowman with the instrument starts to play the music loud. Before you klick on the instrument, the music is muted, so I have the possibility to click on the next instrument and the snowman starts to play the same notes as the one before and not the song from the beginning :-)

well everytime I try to run your world it throws an error message, but what your trying to do is something that im pretty sure can't be done, atleast not in alice. manipulating sound files just to stop midstream in alice is challenging enough and usually causes an error in itself, but how about trying getting one sound file with all the instruments playing at once?
