Hey!

audio.Play(talk) doesn't do anything because "audio" doesn't exist. Instead, you should call the ".Play()" method on the "talk" audio source. Also, ".Play()" only takes a float argument, which will determine the delay after which the sound will be played. It does not accept an audio source as an argument.

So the code should look like this:

GameObject talkObject = GameObject.Find("Talking Sound");
AudioSource talk = talkObject.GetComponent<AudioSource>();
talk.Play();

Hope this helps!
