Looped AudioSource stops looping after 5 or so seconds

Question

For the life of me I can't understand why it stops looping. I have an engine acceleration script that works great, except for the fact that it stops looping after a certain amount of time. I'm only calling the audiosource to be stopped if the user presses a button, it should work just fine. It has worked before implementing this too, I've no idea what breaks it.

private void PlayAccelerateSound()
{
    m_audioSource2.loop = true;

    m_audioSource2.clip = m_engineSound;
    if (!alreadyPlayed)
    {
        m_audioSource2.PlayOneShot(m_audioSource2.clip);
        alreadyPlayed = true;
    }

    if (rb.velocity.x < minPitch)
    {
        m_audioSource2.pitch = minPitch;
    }
    else if (rb.velocity.x > maxPitch)
    {
        m_audioSource2.pitch = maxPitch;
    }
    else
    {
        m_audioSource2.pitch = rb.velocity.x;
    }
}

if `rb.velocity.x` is 0 then pitch will be 0. Default should be 1, so at 0 you won't hear a thing? — KYL3R, Nov 07 '22 at 19:52

Already tried it with checking if `rb.velocity.x` equals 0, still stops looping. — alt4s, Nov 07 '22 at 19:57

Fixed it by using m_audioSource2.Play() instead of m_audioSource2.PlayOneShot(m_audioSource2.clip).
