I have a bit of a complicated slide with audio that needs to play only when a certain "sticky note" is clicked and the slide is done in states so not in layers. I'm having an issue where if they click on another "sticky note" the audio overlaps. I also need the pop-up layer to come up only after all "sticky notes" have been visited---did I do this right?
I took a look at your file. I would recommend that you use Layers when working with this kind of interactivity. The triggers to play media, just create the need for more triggers to stop the media.
See the attached file. I left your slide as is, but duplicated it and made changes to the duplicate.
I removed those triggers and moved the audio and resulting "state" to new layers. Added some naming conventions, so you could possibly track the changes made. Your current setup was a little over programmed, which was causing some conflicts in the design.
@Ron--this is great but it cuts off the 4th sticky note audio and shows up seconds too soon. I've made the timeline longer but it doesn't help. Can you try and tweak it some so that it doesn't do this? Thank you very much.

Thanks so much Ron!!! If you fixed this--you're a lifesaver! Appreciate it.
