OnStart cutscene only played once on player switching (to a player on another scene)

Whenever the player walks from one scene to another, I switch music to a song specific to the current scene. I do this using a Sound: Play music action on the OnStart cutscene for the scene and it works fine as long as the player actually walks between one scene to another. However, if I switch player to a player located in another scene (using the Player: Switch action set to "Appear in other scene"), the music is changed only the first time but not when I switch back.

This seems to be because the OnStart cutscene is only played the first time a player is switched to. Is this a bug or is this by design? If the latter is the case, when would be the right time to run the Sound: Play music action in this case?

Thanks!

Yes, this is by design.  When you switch to a player you've already controlled, you're not re-entering the scene but instead restoring that player's state.

In this case, OnLoad gets called instead.

Ah, good to know, OnLoad should be fine.
