XNA sound effect

Question

I have a little problem with a sound effect. It doesn't function well because when I play it is played around 500000 times in two seconds. Take a look look here:

SoundEffect thunder;
thunter=Content.Load<SoundEffect>("thunder");

foreach (flash flash in flashes)
   if(flash.visible==true)
       if (time >1 && time <3)
            thunder.Play(); //now it sounds bad because it is played a lot of times.. I want it to be played only once! (the sound is 5 sec long)

Answer 1

Hmm. Could it be as simple as this:

foreach (var flash in flashes)
   if (flash.visible && time > 1 && time < 3)
   {
        thunder.Play();
        break; // play sound only once
   }
