Please Note: After researching different articles and tutorials, I can assure you that these solutions on the internet don’t fully work. “Fully work” meaning that they either work on Articulate Storyline 2 and below as in this case: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giW_sabAgSc Or simply refuse to fire on different browsers like Safari or Chrome, as in this case: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/background-audio-cool-trick Ditch the above for a solid JavaScript solution that works great across all browsers, regardless of Articulate Storyline version.

See how I used this technique in my own project: https://www.redesignedminds.com/portfolio-item/essential-breakdown/

It will be of a great help if you could let me know how to stop the first music and start playing the second (different) music. And then at a desired point (event) completely STOP all the music completely - unlike the current unstoppable loop of the music.

(In one of my urgent projects, I need the music to be played only when the learner gets into a question bank + has to experience different (but continuous) music in different question banks (The question banks have several randomized questions) + stop the music when we get out of the question banks).

Any help in this regard please?

Dear All,

Thank you for this great posting!! After been searching high and low for almost 4 days, this is the only solution currently works for the latest Chrome and Firefox as of 7th March 2022. 

If anyone here would advise, how to get this background music to also works for Safari and also for mobile IOS? Appreciate any feedback
