Background Audio file is increasing my project size tremendously

I changed both video and audio files in my 'Media Properties' by 'specifying a new file location'. It worked great. My 'menu background audio', however, isn't taking the change too well. As it sits, my current project size is 90%. Each menu page (4 of them) is only 21 MB. The main video file is 4234.5 MB. What is weird is that my 'menu background audio' file is only 432 KB, but when I pull it into the project and then hit 'prepare', my project jumps to 9520.8 MB!! That's just inserting this small audio file into only one menu page. Something is not right here. I can't seem to find a way to pull this background audio in without it going crazy. The audio file, BTW, is an already rendered AC-3 file. Any suggestions? Thanks!
