I do:

```javascript
class Scene1 extends Phaser.Scene{

constructor(){
super('Scene1');
}

preload(){
this.load.audio('game_music', 'path/filename.wav');
}

create(){
this.gameMusic = this.sound.add('game_music', {
						volume: 1.0,
						loop: true
					});
}
}

class Scene2 extends Phaser.Scene{

constructor(){
super('Scene2');
}

preload(){
this.load.audio('game_music', 'path/filename.wav');
}

create(){
this.gameMusic = this.sound.add('game_music', {
						volume: 1.0,
						loop: true
					});
}
}

```

When I do:

```javascript
this.scene.start('Scene2');
this.scene.stop('Scene1');

```

The music plays again from beginning and doesn’t keep from the current point. I haven’t tested this, I’m just think that is this.

You should load, add, and play the sound only once.

I don’t want the music to play again from beginning when changing the scenes. I want the music to keep playing from the current point when changing the scenes. @samme your answer that you gave me, is it your answer yet?

Nothing will happen when you change scenes. The music will just keep playing.
