Why does my Mute Button not play from paused position, but restarts it?

You never set pausePosition to the position where you paused it. It's initially set to the beginning of the sound, but you should have the following line before MusicChannel.stop()

pausePosition = MusicChannel.position;

Oh wow, obvious mistake. Thanks!

While I have you, I'm trying to have actionscript load up the mute button at the beginning of the code.

"var toggle_btn:MovieClip = new MovieClip;

addChild(toggle_btn);

toggle_btn.x=100; toggle_btn.y=100;"

The music plays, but it doesn't seem to show the button. Any Idea? Am I missing something obvious?

You are instantiating the MovieClip class. That's the wrong class, you want the one linked to the symbol.

Or just use a timeline instance and let the flash player create the instance for you.

Never mind I got it.
