    Hello.
    I have a soundtrack with 5 sec length. I want to make it sound background but when I put toggle Loop each time at the end of the track, I hear a wheeze.

    What audio format is the background sound? I read somewhere that mp3's contain a slight delay which triggers a sound (Maybe its the metadata? track info or something?)

    I'm using a .wmv file for a background audio that loops just fine for me.

    What i did was create a new GameObject > Audio > AudioSource. Set the .wav as the source then dragged the AudioSource into my Heirarchy.

    I set the object in my inspector to "Play on Awake" and "Loop" and it seems to work fine for me!

    I did like you. The problem was in the file. This sound was in the file, then cut the sound from the end of the track, now everything well : )
