However, I can’t get the loudness to change and can’t get the loudness to change seamlessly when the controller from mobGUI is activated.

I would like the loudness to change without stopping the sound, when the user adjusts a scroller that I have. The controller changes the loudness, but not setting the property. I tried with and without a controller, and when the movie is stopped.

However, when I change the volume, play stops. However, if I set the volume from the message box, nothing happens. AND, when I try to set or get the loudness value (from the message box) when I use the controller, nothing changes.

1. is that a typo? It should read:
