Yes, but really you would call it every time you change sound files (not
just the first time).  I would expect using this the first time you set a
filename would have no effect -- the code is supposed to "clear out" the
player for the *next* sound file to be played.  If your stack is hanging the
*first* time filenames are set, something else is going on.
