Background Sound Not Running with N-Back Task in PsychoPy Builder

Hello, I’m creating an N-Back task in PsychoPy Builder and want to play a background sound continuously while the N-Back letters appear.

But when I add the sound component, it doesn’t run simultaneously — either it plays separately or not at all.

Could you please suggest how to play background sound during the N-Back task routine without interrupting the visual stimuli?

Thank you!

Did you untick stop with routine?

The sound component will either need to be in a routine that doesn’t get repeated or you’ll need to add a start condition so it only starts on the first iteration.
