It doesn't works. I use AfxBeginThread() to create the thread and call the buffer's play() function in it But it plays the sound just when it runs int the front when I switch to anotherit stops playing.

Not sure but I suspect you need to make sure that the sound is playing in a separate thread. -Mike G.
