I've been trying to use asynchronous loading to load sounds in my game, but for some reason the sounds never load. I've gotten it to work on a blank gmx made just for testing, but when it's implemented in my game it doesn't work, even with the exact same code.

Here is the object that loads all the music.

//Create:
var extension;
if os_browser=browser_firefox or os_browser=browser_opera extension=".ogg"
else extension=".mp3"
sound_add(mFile+extension,1,1)

//Sound Loaded:
music=ds_map_find_value(async_load,"id")
sound_loop(music)
instance_activate_all()
instance_destroy()

It should work, but it hangs at the loading screen. I noticed that when I could get it to work in my other gmx, it showed the message "SoundSuspended: <File>" while in my game it didn't. This means that the sound didn't load at all for some reason. I tested it in Firefox and Chrome. Here is the source code so you can test it.

I've been doing some more testing, and I think the files may be corrupted. I exported the game, played the songs from the html5game folder in Windows Media Player, and it said that my computer was using too much memory to play them even though my memory was fine. Reloading the file from GameMaker doesn't help. I can play them fine from the project folder, though.
