llPlaySound(string sound, float volume)

Plays a sound once in the current prim.

The sound name, or a UUID. If it is a sound name, it must exist in the inventory of the prim.

The volume from 0.0 (minimum) to 1.0 (max)

• The playing sound will move with the prim (if the prim moves, so will the sound).
• A prim can only have one sound at a time. If another sound starts playing, the currently playing sound or loop will stop, unless llSetSoundQueueing is set to TRUE.
  • Note that llTriggerSound and llTriggerSoundLimited start sounds that are not part of a prim, but are "dropped" where the prim is at the time of starting and become independent, and are therefore not subject to this limitation.
• If the prim belongs to a HUD, the sound started by llPlaySound will be heard only by the wearer. To play sounds from a HUD that can be heard by people around, use llTriggerSound or llTriggerSoundLimited.
• If the sound is a UUID, it doesn't need to be present in the prim.
• If the name of a sound present in the prim's inventory matches the UUID of a sound different to it, the sound that will play is the one in the inventory, not the UUID.
• If the name is not a UUID, and it is not present in the prim's inventory, an error will be shouted in DEBUG_CHANNEL.

// Looks for a sound named "Applause" in the prim's inventory,
// playing it at full volume if it exists, or giving an error if not:
llPlaySound("Applause", 1.0);

// Plays a gunshot sound (unless a sound called 00000000-...0101
// already exists in the prim's inventory, in which case that sound
// will be played instead). The volume will be half the maximum.
llPlaySound("00000000-0000-0000-000000000101", 0.5);
