delay in scares

[lllDash]

Instead of posting a new thread on this next question I thought I would just post it here:
Now I know how to delay a sound but how do I make random repeats of sounds placed in the level editor?
AND/OR
How do I get Areas to trigger sounds placed in the map editor?

The reason why I ask is I know how to get areas to trigger sounds but I dont know make the sound come from a certain direction in the map, and I know how to place sounds in the editor but they always play right when the map loads.

Thanx in advance.
