yield WaitForSeconds not working

Hi guys,

I want to lower the volume of the background music while another sound clip plays and then get the background music to its original volume. I have two scripts - one on the object being destroyed and another on a script attached to the player.

Right now, I get the volume to go to 0, but it never goes back up. Basically, nothing is happening after the yield statement. What am I missing here?

thanks!

----Script on object

var heartRotation : int = 30; 

var heartSound : AudioClip;

var audioSource : AudioSource;


function OnTriggerEnter()
{
	ScriptGUI.cHearts += 1; //Update collected hearts

	//Lower zone music volume
	ScriptGUI.fnLowerMusic();
		
	//Play heart sound
	audioSource = gameObject.Find("SFX_Heart").GetComponent("AudioSource");
	audioSource.clip = heartSound;
	audioSource.Play();
	
	Destroy(gameObject); //Destroy heart
	

}

--------script on camera

static function fnLowerMusic()
{
	Debug.Log("fnLowerMusic() called");
	//Lower zone music volume
	GameObject.Find("Player").GetComponent("AudioSource").volume = 0.0;
	
	//Resume zone music volume
	yield WaitForSeconds (5);
	Debug.Log("Waited 5 seconds");
	GameObject.Find("Player").GetComponent("AudioSource").volume = 1;

Pretty sure you cant have yields in static functions. A static function doesn’t have a monobehavior instance associated with it, so the yield does nothing.
