Video layer loop while audio triggered in background layer?

I have a presentation that triggers many different videos via UDP commands, and then returns to a main looping video until the next command is received. This works fine, but I would like to add the ability to send UDP commands that trigger an audio file to play in the background while the video layer continues to loop the main video (which has no audio).

I've tried some things but have not had much luck. I am using an 1132, is it possible to do this? 

Thanks!

    Yes, it's possible. Please attach your presentation file (.bpf file).

    So you want that "dinn bros.mp3" file automatically starts to play during playback of "logo loop" state? If so, try the following method:

    Double-click on "logo loop" state > go to Advanced tab > add zone messages to entry and exit commands sections.

    Then open audio zone and use Zone Message events to start and stop audio file.

     

    Important note: if video file contains audio layer, then you must verify that audio sampling rate in video and audio files is equal (48kHz or 44.1kHz), otherwise playback may fail.

    Long story short is that is not exactly what I wanted to accomplish, but the key of making sure that the audio in the different zones used the same sample rate was what was keeping my project from working properly. Thank you for the help!
