I have a similar aiff

fine. I was sent 3 different versions of tock.aiff and I can't get any of
them to work. All are 9k aiff files, they all make the tock sound when
played in iTunes, but when I replace shortbeep.aiff with tock.aiff in the LC
app, I don't get any sound at all. Any ideas? (I'm using the same code for
both sounds, but only shortbeep makes a sound).

I don't know if this would apply to your situation, but something identical happened to me on an Android device. It took me three days to track it down. Apparently the duration of the sound file was too short. I had to add silence to the end to make it last longer than a second or so. After that it would play.

The thing is, even the original very short files played in the IDE so that may not be what's wrong here. But you could try editing the files in a sound editor if nothing else works.


PS is there anyway to adjust the volume of a sound through script control?

See "playLoudness" in the dictionary. Why it doesn't have the word "sound" or "volume" in its name is a secret only the MetaCard creator knew. I can never remember it.
