I know $sound(type) is supposed to return the specified sound directory for that sound extension but when I use $sound(filename.mp3) all it does is return the specified sound directory again even though the mp3 is in a subdirectory of $sound(mp3) ... is this correct how it works? shouldn't it at least check sub-directories for the file?

edit.. on further inspection it seems I have to use
$sound("filename.mp3") with the quotation marks.. nm.
