Hello,

I am using below code to pause any sound during the pause state of the game.

```auto
FMODUnity.RuntimeManager.PauseAllEvents(true);

```

However it does not stop the Programmer Sound. I’ve implemented based on this example - [https://www.fmod.com/docs/2.01/unity/examples-programmer-sounds.html](https://www.fmod.com/docs/2.01/unity/examples-programmer-sounds.html)

How do I implement a proper pause for Programmer Sounds?

J

Unfortunately, I’ve been unable to reproduce the issue on my end - when using the programmer sound example code, I’m able to call `FMODUnity.RuntimeManager.PauseAllEvents(true);` to pause all events, including those that are currently playing programming instruments.

Are the details (i.e. FMOD version, Unity version, etc.) in [your previous post about programmer sounds](https://qa.fmod.com/t/fmod-programmer-sound-freeze-on-unity/19911) still accurate? If not, could I get you to provide the version numbers that you’re currently using?
