    I got a strange request from a customer. He would like to play an MP3 player when ever an active game is going on his Chicago Cubs Triple Play pinball machine. I have a schematic on the way and is supposed to show up tomorrow. I was wondering if anyone has done something like this before and can give me a point in the right direction.

    Gottlieb games have a game over relay, tap into that.

    It won't stop whatever's playing on the regular sound board though, so
    if there's an option to turn off background sound on the game itself,
    you could probably set that.

    A board like this "MP3 Trigger" can play sound files in response to
    switch inputs.
