Crashing glitch in GameSalad

Okay, we all know about the issue that sound effects won't play on older mac models. But, after 0.98 onwards, I have encountered an even worse bug. So if I go to the sound section in the asset viewer and press a sound effect, it doesn't play but stays set to play forever right? So if three are simultaneously "playing", GameSalad will crash. It doesn't seem like a big deal right? If I preview a scene that in its coding, there are three or more sound effects, GameSalad will crash after I press Preview, or Play. This renders previewing useless! Now I have tested it on the mac that could preview sounds in the asset viewer and it works fine. This terrible crashing error really slows down my productivity rate! I'm also going to send this paragraph in the contact form!

    I think your computer will have a max of what it can handle, you should figure it out and then put the max amount in.

    You'll prob have to buy a 4 gig set. I think if you have 2GB its 2 - 1GB sticks.

    I believe this model (I have the very same) has a max capability of 2 GB ram.
