I have a game and need to play the same 3 sounds over and over again when users perform actions. I have code that works great, but after they play a certain amount of times (~100), my users phones start freezing up and generally have to have a battery pull done. My guess is that this is an out of memory situation and that I am not efficiently using the audio functions and instead loading the file into memory each time. 

Can you guys help me out by checking out this code and seeing if I am doing it wrong? Thanks!

 public void play(String noise)

    {

        if (this.m_player != null){

            try {

this.m_player.stop();

} catch (MediaException e) {

// TODO Auto-generated catch block

e.printStackTrace();

}

        }

        try 

        {

            Class cl = Class.forName("com.mynamespace.blahblahblah");

            InputStream input = cl.getResourceAsStream("/" + noise + ".mp3");

            this.m_player = Manager.createPlayer(input,"audio/mpeg");

            this.m_player.realize();

            m_volumeControl = getVolumeControl(m_player);

            if (m_volumeControl != null)

                m_volumeControl.setLevel(60);

            this.m_player.prefetch();

            this.m_player.start();

            this.m_player.deallocate();

        }

        catch (Exception e){

            System.out.println("ERR: " + e.toString());

        }

    }

private VolumeControl getVolumeControl( Player p ) {

        return (VolumeControl)p.getControl( "VolumeControl" );

    }

I had a similar issue and found that the player does not release resources unless it is stopped.

        try {
            m_player.stop();
            m_player.close();
        }
        catch (Exception e){
        }
