Is SampleDataEvent implemented for Windows?

Alas, I can’t remember what version it was.
But I have good news, it still works with OpenFL 8.0.1! There’s just one line that needs to be changed:

github.com

openfl/openfl/blob/ae3105fa1c80e957cbae3bbffef33d62545ebcc8/src/openfl/media/Sound.hx#L204


		
		__buffer = audioBuffer;
		
		dispatchEvent (new Event (Event.COMPLETE));
		
	}
	
	
	public function play (startTime:Float = 0.0, loops:Int = 0, sndTransform:SoundTransform = null):SoundChannel {
		
		if (__buffer == null || SoundMixer.__soundChannels.length >= SoundMixer.MAX_ACTIVE_CHANNELS) {
			
			return null;
			
		}
		
		if (sndTransform == null) {
			
			sndTransform = new SoundTransform ();
			
		} else {

We need to change it to this:

if (SoundMixer.__soundChannels.length >= SoundMixer.MAX_ACTIVE_CHANNELS) {

Reason is simple - if we just use the Sound object to listen for a SampleDataEvent, __buffer will be null upon initialization and the events won’t ever get fired.
