A sound resource in Hypercard can only be 32K same as a field size.  
However, the other night I saw an Apple salesman demonstrating a multimedia stack that  had long sounds.  
 
I ask him how he overcame the 32K barrier and his response was that he 
wasn't aware there was that barrier.  

Apparently there is something I don't know.  Do I need an XCMD to branch 
out and play a sound resource from a file?
