Changing Music Voume

I created a music slider that works well... it actually gets a variable and sets the device-audio-musicvoume, which I verified by having a text field display the value.
The only problem is... the music volume doesn't actually change. Must I stop and start the music for it to take affect?

Are you sure it's a music file (.m4a) and not a sound file (.ogg)?
Yes... you can't even select an ogg file to play as music.
I can't seem to change the volume of the music in any way... is this a bug with the current Windows version?
The value range that the volume attribute operates in is 0 to 1, what is the value range that is being displayed in the text field display ?
No sound bug that I'm aware of. And like @Socks said, the range is 0-1 for the volume, so the increments would be decimal points - .1, .2, .3, etc.
It's basically 0 to 1. The slider is setup to do floor(position.x - sliderMin)/(slidermax-slidermin).
This is showing values of 0 - 1.
@ookami007 you need to tag @socks in your reply in order for him to know you have replied. Simply put a "@" symbol in front of his or anybody else's name to tag them in a post. Without this your reply may go unnoticed.
Thanks @gingagaming - I'll have to mention @socks next time. I just tried hard coding the music volume to .2 before starting the play music and it still plays at full volume.
Something must be bugged with Windows Game Salad.
When I try the nightly build... it doesn't play at all - or at least, I can't hear it... and the game function seems to be broken, so I can't test my menu.
I have the same problem. I simply use change attribute to change music volume to 0 or any value between 0 to 1 but nothing happened, the music volume is the same.
@ookami007, did you solve this problem?
@ookami007 @liux2355 are you both using GS on windows or Mac?
Never solved my problem. Still having the same issue... but since there's been no new version for the Win GS, I didn't expect it to be solved yet.
Music is controlled using the music volume not sound. At least in Mac creator. Plus be sure the file was imported as music.
