How do we have two audio streams

[ChristienChapman]

I have tried to make two audio streams using wav. One is for music and the other for sounds. I have separated the functions but anytime you play a sound it cancels out the music and then stalls all audio altogether. Thanks.

you can’t have multiple audio streams.
