Play Sound When User Types Something on A Channel

[Proletarian Venus]

I've made this script to play a sound from an objects inventory when a user types "one" on channel 23.

It should work, it shows up green "script is okay" symbol on the top right corner of the script text box, but it doesn't work, no matter what I do.

Help? Here is the script. It's not my sound as that works, and its not the sound files I';ve chosen as those all play fine independently.

    state_entry()
    {
        llListen(23,"", NULL_KEY, "");
    }
    listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message)
    {
        if (message == "one") {
        llPlaySound(llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_SOUND,0),1);
        }
    }
}

The script works fine for me.

Possible problems for you might be:
- The script isn't running. 
- You are on a 'no scripts' parcel.
- Other reasons I can't think up right now.

I am in a script enabled Linden Premium Sandbox. This is odd.

To check if the listen event fires you could add a

llOwnerSay("I hear you!");

Then, if that works, try a llOwnerSay to check the 'if'.

Instead of 

llListen(23,"", NULL_KEY, "");

try using 

llListen(23,"", "", "");

instead

If you haven't tried Ron's suggestion, do it.  That will tell you whether the script is listening at all.  Then,

1. Be sure that you are actually typing in channel 23  >>>  "/23 one"

2. Try using llTriggerSound instead of llPlaySound.

After you save/compile the script in the object, make sure that the "Running" checkbox is in fact checked. I have seen instances where it was turned off without my realizing it.

Also, how far away from the object is your camera? Because sometimes sounds in SL tend to have a steep falloff as your viewport gets further away from the source. As a test, zoom your camera right up to the object and listen if you can hear the sound. Combine that with the other diagnostic instrumentation suggested by the others.
