## alSndpSetPriority

Syntax

    #include <libaudio.h>
    void alSndpSetPriority(ALSndPlayer *sndp, ALSndId id, u8 priority);

Arguments

- sndp is the pointer to a sound player
- id is the id of the sound returned when the sound is allocated by alSndpAllocate
- priority is the sound priority

Explanation
It sets the priority of a sound. The sound priority is mapped directly to a voice priority in the Synthesis Driver when the sound is played. When new requests for voices are made to the Synthesis Driver (when a sound or note is played), lower priority voices will be stolen if there are no free voices.
