How I do it:
1. Complete the tease without sound.
2. Add ,hidden:sound(id:'SOUNDFILE.mp3') as last argument to the respective pages.
3. Save
4. Never open those pages with Nyx Visual Editor, because Nyx likes to delete the added code when doing so.

You can use the (terrible) preview feature.
Otherwise, you have to at least publish the tease for a short amount of time to test it in practice:
1. Publish the tease.
2. Open the tease and wait till it's loaded.
3. Unpublish tease

If you want to create teases for personal use, better use an offline editor.

Well, thanks for that little tip! I'm going to try it out soon!

So once I unpublish the tease, other's can't see it, but since it is on the site, I dont need to use the 'preview' feature on nyx, right?
also, what offline editors do you use? which one's would you suggest?

Also, thank you for the reply! :)

Publishing the tease makes it possible to load the data. You can still play as long as you don't reload the page, even if the tease is unpublished. But you have to publish it again every time you want to load it up.

I'm not very experienced with offline teases, but GuideMe should be the most prominent one and has more features than Nyx.

Alternatively, you can use the new Eos Editor which has a good preview function.
