AS3 Loading External AS2 SWF - No Sound

[jricci9]

I need to down and dirty get an SWF created in AS2 into AS3.

So I'm externally loading it in AS3.

var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mySWF.swf");

var loader:Loader = new Loader()

loader.load(request);

addChild(loader);

In this AS2 SWF there are mp3's in the library that are played not on a timeline, but played through the old = new Sound and .attachSound etc etc

It all works in AS2, but when it tries to play in the AS3 movie clip, everything plays EXCEPT sound.

I tried also putting the sound files in the AS3 library and using export to script, but that's not working.

What am I  missing?
