So the problem I'm having is that I CAN play the audio when I do it from the init method in my AppMain class, but obviously that plays the clip right when the applet initializes. I'm making a multiple choice music game, so I want the music to play when the first question comes up. The game works, but I am only including two of my classes here (my main class that initializes it, and the questions class where I WANT the music to play) thanks.
Main class(works with music)
That works, but I want the audio to be able to play in my next class, the actual game part of my code. The majority of this code just changes the questions/answers so ignore the big middle part. Methods are at the very end:

sorry for the lengthiness, but if I can figure this out I'm golden. There are no syntax errors, but clearly something is wrong with what I am trying to do here. Thanks!
