**What are you trying to achieve?: I am trying to play different audio-files per loop. This worked at first, but then in the second trial the audio-files are not played entirely but cut or entirely skipped. Thereafter I got a second problem where with some settings the audio (but still not the entire one) can only be played on my headphones and not on my speakers.

What did you try to make it work?: I tried various - less and more complex - designs (as it was first working and now not anymore), I tried changes preference audio-settings and I tried adding ISI’s. My audio-files differ in length (6, 8, 9 seconds).

What specifically went wrong when you tried that?:
Dear reader, in my design I would like to play different audio-files per trial, which at first worked. However I changed my design and now I bump into problems that I cannot get right (and also the previous designs do not work anymore):

  1. The first audio-file is played correctly, but the ones after that are either cut half-way or skipped entirely. Adding an ISI to load the sound-files did not work.

  2. Next I tried changing the preference settings, which also didn’t work:
    a. With ‘sounddevice’ as preference setting, I have the problem described under 1 when having headphones in, and the following problem without headphones:
    ValueError: Multiple output devices found for ‘Speakers (Conexant ISST Audio)’:
    [3] Speakers (Conexant ISST Audio), MME
    [7] Speakers (Conexant ISST Audio), Windows DirectSound
    [8] Speakers (Conexant ISST Audio), Windows WASAPI

b. With ‘PTB’ as preference, I get the error that the audio-files are not with the same Hz, however I had this before and changed all the audio-files (and checked again) to 44100. So I am not sure how this can be the case.
psychopy.exceptions.SoundFormatError: Tried to create audio stream 44100_2_128 but 48000_2_128 already exists and win32 doesn’t support multiple portaudio streams

c. With ‘pygame’ the experiment just stays grey after the first audio-file (with and without tapping the ‘’hamming’’ box).
I paste my Flow and Excel-file underneath. I really hope someone can help me, thank you in advance. R.
