    Hi!

    Audio from a movie continuing to play when the VideoPlayer playing this movie gets destroyed is certainly not the intended behaviour! Can you explain how you're destroying the VideoPlayer? If you're just destroying the geometry on which the movie is played, but the VideoPlayer sits on another - not destroyed - game object, then it'd explain what you are describing. The VideoPlayer doesn't track the life scope of the targeted render texture/material/object/camera so depending on your setup you may need to deal with this manually.

    In any event, calling VideoPlayer.Stop() explicitly will do the trick.
