Thanks, Jon - I just did that and it appears that the link is fine. The same link works fine under the "Resources" section; it appears to have something to do with the fact that this link is in a text box - but I'm not sure why that would be.
Pretty sure this is a bug that will be addressed. It happened to me when I had multiple links within a single text box, but it looks like maybe you just have one link and I'm guessing it's got an animation on it.
Here's what another use has to say:
"If you are using animation "By First Level Paragraph" hyperlinks won't work when published - this a bug. You can make the linked text look like a hyperlink and insert a hot spot that triggers the URL on top of it - not elegant but it works."
Maybe try taking the animation off and see if it works, or try the suggestion above. Let us know how it turns out. --Daniel Brigham

Hello, Julie. Please make sure the url to the target file is correct. You can "Check" it in the "Trigger Wizard" window. Refer to the graphic below.

Thanks! that was it - I removed the animation and it worked. I appreciate the tip and will work around that until they are able to address the bug.
