Play sound clip as background music while other animation continues? (InDesignCS5)

Question

BACKGROUND: I'm creating an invitaion with simple animation in InDesignCS5 that will be exported as a swf and html file to be played on the web.
I've inserted an MP3 file that "plays on page load."  I've got several other items (text) animated that also "plays on page load" but the timing panel has them in a certain order. I've placed the MP3 file on the top of the timing list, as I want it to start first.
PROBLEM: The sound clip plays all the way through before allowing the other animations to start.
I tried to group the sound clip with other animations in timing panel (using "play together"), but that ruins the order for everything else.
I tried to "Loop" the sound to see what happens, and on the second time it plays, the rest of the animation occurs... just like I wanted.....But not until it starts to loop the sound, which I don't want to do.
Any suggestions for having the sound play as background music to my entire swf file?

Hello there,
in order for a sound to play together with other animations you need to put the sound on top of the sequence AND group all animations together with the sound. You can then add delays to the animations if you want them to display in a sequence and not at the same time. If you need more than a single sequence (eg. two audio files speaking in the same slide) you can then add another separate group of audio+animations.
