A sound isnt listening to the properties I set it to?

Yes, odd question I know, but I dont know any other way to really ask it.

I have a sound and its inside serverstorage. When a player is teleported to the map its supposed to start the sound (which it does). But it doesnt remember the properties I set and it also is only local so other people cannot hear it.

I have filtering enabled turned on. When a player is teleported he is supposed to be breathing quietly but instead its at full blast and none of the settings are remembered. Here is the script.

1local breathing = game.ServerStorage:WaitForChild("Breathing"):Clone()
2 
3    breathing.EmitterSize = 1
4    breathing.Looped = true
5    breathing.MaxDistance = 12
6    breathing.Volume = 0.4
7    breathing:Play()

Now to give you more clarity, that is a small portion of the script. Its inside a function so it is running, trust me I know its running because when I join my ears die.

It plays it but none of the properties work.

maybe put the sound in replicated storage abnotaddable 920 — 7y

LocalScripts cannot access ServerStorage. XAXA 1569 — 7y

In addition, when a LocalScript edits a sound's properties, the edited properties will not replicate to everyone else. If you must clone a sound from the server to a player, then edit the properties from the server beforehand, or just edit the sound itself. XAXA 1569 — 7y

maybe instead of doing

`1`	`local` `breathing` `=` `game.ServerStorage:WaitForChild("Breathing"):Clone()`

you can do

`1`	`local` `breathing` `=` `game.ServerStorage.Breathing:Clone()`

you don't have to do wait for child if the sound is in server storage Hope this helped if it didn't then I really don't know :D of btw if you are making this for players then do this

1local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
2local char = player.Character
3local breathing = game.ServerStorage.Breathing:Clone().Parent = char
4 
5breathing.EmitterSize = 1
6breathing.Looped = true
7breathing.MaxDistance = 12
8breathing.Volume = 0.4
9breathing:Play()
