To play an Audio Random Container, you must integrate it with the Audio Source component and then play it, such as with one of the game trigger options.
You can only use the Audio Random Container in conjunction with the Audio Source component. It’s the emitter for the Audio Random Container and determines whether the Audio Random Container has a position in the world or sounds like it doesn’t have a position. For more information, refer to Audio SourceA component which plays back an Audio Clip in the scene to an audio listener or through an audio mixer. More info
See in Glossary.
