looping sounds

[James Keidel]

from looking at the code you posted earlier it appears that you are
testing the value of toneCount and if it meets some condition then you
go to label2.  thus you never get to the test of the response.  I
think the order you need to test things is check whether there is a
correct response, and if there is not then you check the value of the
toneCount.  hope this makes sense.
