[p5.js 2.0 Bug Report]: p5 sound loop() not working

[megamitts]

Most appropriate sub-area of p5.js?

• Accessibility
• Color
• Core/Environment/Rendering
• Data
• DOM
• Events
• Image
• IO
• Math
• Typography
• Utilities
• WebGL
• Build process
• Unit testing
• Internationalization
• Friendly errors
• Other (specify if possible)

p5.js version

2.0.5

Web browser and version

All

Operating system

All

Steps to reproduce this

Steps:

1. Load a music file
2. Set music to loop
3. Nothing plays

Snippet:

// very pseudo!

let music;

music = await loadSound('music.mp3');

music.loop();

The tune will not play. It will work fine if you use music.play() instead and a workaround is to use music.onended() to create a function that just kicks in music.play() again but music.loop() just does nothing and doesn't even fire any errors in the console.

Am I doing something wrong when calling loop() in 2.0.x now?

Hi @megamitts please assign me this issue

For some reason I can't get it to let me assign you.

Looking at the help it says:

"Anyone with write access to a repository can assign issues and pull requests." so I guess I don't have write access. Sorry, my github knowledge is incredibly basic.

Doh, now I've managed to close the issue!

I'd best leave it alone in case I bring down the whole project LOL.
