I can't get the sound to play when I hit a new platform.
Here's the collision in the main loop:

+ Code Snippet

for(sp_num = 4; sp_num < 10; sp_num ++)
{
  if(dbSpriteY(sp_num) > ycord)
  {
    dbPlaySound(1);
    while(dbSpriteCollision(3, sp_num)!= 0)
  {
  ycord -= 2;
  if(dir == 2) dbSprite(3, xcord, ycord,3);
  if(dir == 1) dbSprite(3, xcord, ycord, 5);
  //enable jumping!
  jump = 1;	
  if(sp_hold != sp_num)
  {
    //This will hold the number of the sprite
    //the player just collided with 
    //so it wont  play the sound more then once
    //while standing on the platform
    sp_hold = sp_num;
    //The stupid playsound that doesn't work
    dbPlaySound(1);
  }
}

I've made sure by checking with a breakpoint that it only enters the if with dbPlaySound once per platform.

if(sp_hold != sp_num)
{
sp_hold = sp_num;
dbPlaySound(1);
}

still there are no sound.

And yes; I have the speaker on and I loaded the sound with dbLoadSound("land.wav", 1);

I don't know if you can play-sound twice (its already playing at the top of the for..loop, right? That is, it works there doesn't it? You may have to load it again (or clone it) so the second instance can play.

I haven't dealt with gdk sounds yet so I'm just guessing...

Oh I'm so stupid, the first PlaySound isn't suppose to be there!
It's working now <.<
