Me again... How come ChannelState 'Always' returns -1 in Flash?

Strict

Import mojo

Global game:MyGame

Function Main:Int()
	game = New MyGame()
	Return 0
End Function

Class MyGame Extends App

	Field testObject:Sound
	
	Method OnCreate:Int()
		SetUpdateRate 60
		testObject = LoadSound("explosion.mp3")
		PlaySound(testObject,0,0)
		
	End Method
	
	Method OnUpdate:Int()
	
	End Method
	
	Method OnRender:Int()
		
		Cls
		DrawText ChannelState(0),0,0
		
	End Method 
End Class

Doesnt matter what sound files I shove in there, it always returns -1!

Works as expected in HTML5 though (Untested on others)

Is this expected?

If all else fails... RTFM :P

/docs/modules/index.html#/mojo.audio

Flash: ChannelRate does nothing.
Flash: ChannelState and MusicState always returns -1, ie: 'unknown'.

Ah cack, my apologies.... Just clicked Home->Modules->mojo.audio->ChannelState while thinking that specific information regarding said function would be there.

So technically, it is expected and as a result, its pretty much useless in a cross platform sense... Nice!

In the actual Version 40 there are all targets supported, in fact there does not stand something about unsupported functions for several targets.

So my question: Does it work now?
Im trying to get SetChannelRate but it does not work with HTML5 for me
