When we attempt to have a sound file repeat (play 2 times consequetively) once someone enters a room, our efforts fail.
There is obviously a trick to causing repeating "play sound in" commands to work but we're stumped.

You need to use the ;sync parameter so that Quest waits until the sound finishes playing before executing any more instructions - otherwise what happens is the file starts playing for a fraction of a second and then starts playing again.
