So I'm trying to play a looping sound on the player, and since I don't want other players to hear it, I'm playing is local for the player. Being a looping sound, I then try to stop it with A_StopSound, but unfortunately it won't stop. I figured there's some channel shenanigans going on, but I tried playing the sound on CHAN_5 | CHAN_MAYBE_LOCAL and stopping that, but that didn't work either. Am I missing something, or is this some bug?
I've attached a test wad so you can see it. Summon LocalSoundLooper to start it and LocalSoundStopper to stop it. Side note, if there's a better way to loop a sound for the player for the entire duration a powerup's running, I'd love to know about it.
