Description
The (audio)field is configured with the option "Multiple values" activated, but when I try to add content for my new content type, there is only one uploadfield for audiofiles. There should be 3, like for all other cck field types.

#1
Audio field uses another approach. It was copied from filefield and imagefield.
It shows a table of uploaded files and only one file upload field to upload another file.
It is not a bug, but probably feature request. I think after all file fields are put on a single implementation we will find a common solution to display multiple files. I'm afraid that there is no need to have several file upload elements.
#2
I didn't realize that this was a design decision. If all the file-related fields are in a redesign process right now, I would suggest to add the "Multiple values" option to it for similarity to the other cck fields like text.
So for now, I will just add multiple audiofields to a content type.
#3
Ideally, this should be solved on a CCK core level - some kind of a button which adds another field (javascript)...
#4
AJAX upload with described functionality is now in HEAD (http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=123607), closing
