well, this might not be quite right, but here's what I think...

When you pass pointers as variables, I don't think you need the &.
This would pass a pointer to the pointer, and I think they just want the
pointer. If the routine is expecting a pointer and gets a handle (when
you pass it &pointer), it would screw everything up and you'd be likely to
get an odd adress error (well, 50% likely anyways). If this is the case,
your error would've come up before playing the sound (which would never play).

hope that's the bug..
