SCALA I.C.:Music In Sub-Scripts

I have created a series of screens for the cable information channel I maintain for a
client. Some of these are designed to promote the showing times of PPV movies and
events. I have created individual scripts for each movie (with each screen representing
different days of the month that movie is showing, scheduled appropriately) and then
combined those into four sub-scripts, each containing four or five movies/events. These
four scripts are then inserted into my MASTER script so the movie info is distributed
throughout the other info we show.
This could be illustrated as follows:
(HACKERS) (WATERWORLD) (SEVEN) (JADE) (BRVHRT) (SUSPECTS) (ETC)
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
\ | | / \ | /
(APRIL PPV 1 SUB-SCRIPT) (APRIL PPV 2 SUB-SCRIPT)
| |
| |
\_________ _________/
\ /
(MASTER SCRIPT)
The Problem:
I want to run (mod) music during each sub-script of movies shown. I figured I could load
each movie script into the sub-scripts, put a music line at the top and it would play as
SCALA loads each movie script in the sub-script. However, this does not work. No music
plays at all.
Why is this?

Also I assume that you have inserted the music event as a DAL (Direct Access Line) event. Make sure that you do not have the "Wait" option checkmarked (tic'd). See if this works.
