Stop audio when projector looses focus???

Question

I am using the MPEG Advance Xtra to play audio. I import the
audio with the Xtra and it places an audio member in my cast. I
then drag that onto the stage and into Channel 20. It spans 10
frames and there is a stop command on the last frame so that the
audio voice over plays to the end.
I have several of these audio sprites throughout my project
and I need a way for audio to pause when the viewer switches to
another program and then start again when the return to my project.
I have UNchecked the box in the projector settings that says, "Play
in Background" so that is not the issue. I tried to place the
following Lingo on the sprite that contains the audio:
on deactivateWindow
sprite(20).stop()
end
on deactivateApplication
sprite(20).stop()
end
These don't work. Maybe I'm placing them in the wrong
location or maybe they are wrong altogether. Your suggestions would
be appreciated!!!

I think you need to re-check the "animate in the background"
box, and
the handlers above need to be in a #movie script - these
messages aren't
sent to sprites.
