Managing Sound Files

Hello.

Using DX Pro 3.1, I find that I can only play one sound at a time via the "idiot boxes".

Is there a way to script a sound file to play in the manner of Background Music and still have the sounds from a game play (without interrupting the BG Music?).

I am working through W3 Schools VB Script tutorials, but am just starting, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
