Hello;

When I call this function

       sound = ListPlay[mysound]

when inside a While[]or Do loop, i.e. something like this:

loop
    get file name from user <--- here user enters sound file name
    read file name
    ListPlay[]
  end loop

Mathematica does not wait for sound to be fully played and
it gets back to the statment waiting for user to enter a new
sound file name to be played.

If I put the ListPlay[] command outside the loop, in a
separate cell, the sound plays fine.

is there a way to delay the loop untill the sound is played
completely?

thank you,
