How to stop music in L4D2? It's not working.

PHP Code:

new const String:g_Music[2][] =
{
    "music/witch",
    "music/tank"
};


public Action:MusicSoundHook(clients[64], &numClients, String:sample[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH], &entity, &channel, &Float:volume, &level, &pitch, &flags) 
{ 
    if (i_Music == 1) { // Music sounds
        for (new i = 0; i < sizeof(g_Music); i++) {
            if (StrContains(sample, g_Music[i], false) > -1) {
                volume = 0.0;
                return Plugin_Changed;
            }
        }
    }

    return Plugin_Continue;
}

StopSound(). If you don't know the sound name, you can add a sound hook to find out what the directory is when it plays.

It's not working too.

PHP Code:

public OnMapStart()
{
    CheckSoundPreCache("music/tank/midnighttank.wav");
    CheckSoundPreCache("music/tank/onebadtank.wav");
    CheckSoundPreCache("music/tank/taank.wav");
    CheckSoundPreCache("music/tank/tank.wav");
}

stock CheckSoundPreCache(const String:Soundfile[])
{
    PrecacheSound(Soundfile, true);
    PrintToServer("Precaching Sound:%s",Soundfile);
}


public Event_RoundStart(Handle:event, const String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast)
{
    for (new i = 1; i <= MaxClients; i++)
    {
        if (IsClientConnected(i) && IsClientInGame(i))
        {
            StopSound(i, SNDCHAN_STATIC, "music/tank/midnighttank.wav");
            StopSound(i, SNDCHAN_STATIC, "music/tank/onebadtank.wav");
            StopSound(i, SNDCHAN_STATIC, "music/tank/taank.wav");
            StopSound(i, SNDCHAN_STATIC, "music/tank/tank.wav");
            TimerStopSound[i] = CreateTimer(1.0/10, Timer_StopSound, i, TIMER_REPEAT);
            TimerStopTimer[i] = CreateTimer(7.0, Timer_StopTimer, i);
        }
    }
}

public Action:Timer_StopSound(Handle:timer, any:client)
{
    if (TimerStopSound[client] != INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
            StopSound(client, SNDCHAN_STATIC, "music/tank/midnighttank.wav");
            StopSound(client, SNDCHAN_STATIC, "music/tank/onebadtank.wav");
            StopSound(client, SNDCHAN_STATIC, "music/tank/taank.wav");
            StopSound(client, SNDCHAN_STATIC, "music/tank/tank.wav");
            PrintToChatAll("Stopping MUSIC sound");
    }
}

public Action:Timer_StopTimer(Handle:timer, any:client)
{
    if (TimerStopSound[client] != INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        KillTimer(TimerStopSound[client]);
        TimerStopSound[client] = INVALID_HANDLE;
        PrintToChatAll("TimerStopMusic finished.");
    }
}

Try SNDCHAN_AUTO instead

Nothing helps, this music still plays.
All other sounds are stopped, but not from the music folder

Pretty sure you can't do this since it's a clientsided sound.
Same with footsteps

The solution is sm_cvar music_manager 0, this is exactly what I needed.

I have this same problem too, there's another way that is type in the console music_dynamic_stop_playing in some music event it will eventually stop, but certain musics it cannot be stop somehow.

Sadly its a protected cvar/cmd now. Thanks Valve.
Also, HOW IS "clear" AN EXPLOITABLE COMMAND, VALVE?!!?
