I want to add page turn sound when users click "next". I tried to import the audio file, but it didn't work when I previewed the slide. Is there anyway I can make this happen adding sound at the specific point in one slide?
I added the audio file. However, if I setup the trigger as "play media when user clicks Next Button", it didn't work. Otherwise, it worked ok as such "play media when user clicks Character". I put Play Media Trigger above the Next button trigger. Please see my attachment here. Thanks!
In the attachment above, when I preview the first slide, the Page Turn sound plays, but I can't hear anything if I preview This Scene and Entire Project. Please help!
Ok, I think I don't even have to use trigger to make what I want happen. I want a trigger to play turn page sound when user click next button. I set up a trigger as "play Turn Page sound when user click next button", however, it didn't work. I realized I could just directly insert the audio file without using any trigger. When I clicked on next button, the slide jumped and the Turn Page sound played as well.
But still, I am curious why the trigger doesn't control the audio file as the way I setup.
In your file, the sound never had a chance to play because clicking the Next button would immediately jump to the next slide. See attached a file that plays the sound when the Next button is clicked and only jumps to the next slide after the audio has finished.
Thanks Michael. That makes sense. No wonder it plays when I only preview the slide but doesn't work when previewing the entire project. Thanks very much!

Add a trigger
Play Media when user clicks NEXT button
And make sure the Play Media trigger is above the Go to Next Slide trigger that is normally applied to the Next button.
