when I try to play a sound with Phonegap i get the following error:

here is my play function:

lastMedia = null
function play(id){
    alert('playing ' + id)
    if (lastMedia){
        lastMedia.stop()
        lastMedia.release()
    }
    lastMedia = new Media('/android_asset/www/sounds/'+id+'.ogg', function(){}/*, function(err){alert('error: ' + err)}*/)
    lastMedia.play()
}

any ideas?

One thing you probably want to do is make sure you’re trying to stop something that is actually currently playing. Something like this:

if (lastMedia != null && lastMedia.isPlaying()){
    lastMedia.stop()
    lastMedia.release()
}
