System Information
WIndows 7 ult, 2.4ghz celeron cpu, 2gb ram, Geforce 8400 GS

Blender Version
2.7

Short description of error
In python, a call to stopSound just restarts the sound. Calling pauseSound does nothing. Calling deactivate from the controller doesn't stop the sound either.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
In the Text Editor, add a new Text and type in the following:

from bge import logic

cont = logic.getCurrentController()
actSound = cont.actuators['Sound']

if cont.sensors['Always'].positive:

  actSound.startSound()

if cont.sensors['Message'].positive:

  actSound.stopSound()

Create any object (an Empty for example). Attach an "Always" sensor, hook it to a "Python" controller, than hook that to a "Sound" actuator. Set the Python Text block to "Text" or whatever you named our script. Set the Sound file to whatever sound you want to use (an mp3 type file since that is what I used). Set the "Play Mode" to "Loop End". Add a "Message" sensor and hook it to the "Python" controller. Set the Subject to "Test" without the quotes.

Create another object. Add a "Delay" sensor. Set the Delay parameter to 200. Attach it to a "And" controller, then attach that to a "Message" actuator. Set the "Message" actuator's "To" block to the first object you made, then type "Test" in the "Subject" field without the quotes. Start the game engine. Your sound will start playing immediately. After a few seconds, it will restart instead of stop.

This is not the place to post this (don't know where to post) but it needs to be addressed:

My first report had some bad formatting because I didn't know that tabs and using # comment lines would produce an issue. Now that I replaced tabs with spaces, it still formats it wrong.

In the user settings of this website, in the drop down list for what time zone I'm in, there is no setting for United States - Seattle or anything for Pacific Northwest I recognize. I used Vancouver because it was closest.

Could you please provide an example blend file demonstrating the problem?

As was mentioned, we do need .blend fiel which demonstrates the issue.

This is not a bug. I attach the .blend that you are describing.
In that case the "actSound.stopSound()" is called only one time because the menssage sensor is positive when it receive the menssage from message actuator only. The remaining time is false.
Due to this and that we also have an always sensor conected to an "actSound.startSound()" you will have the following procedure:

1º - always.positive -> startsound
2º - when delay = 200 --> stop.sound (only one time)
3º - As always is positive yet -> startsound

Closing, then (and no answer since over a week anyway)…
