My SME has requested the "next" button, has a tone or click associated with it when they click it. I know this is possible by adding an audio file to every slide and then creating a trigger on every slide to play that audio when the next button is clicked but this seems like a lot of extra work for a project that has a lot of slides.
Is there an option to make this a global trigger or update this on the player in some way?
You can add audio to the next button in the player with a trigger and then just copy and paste the trigger to every slide. Make sure you push this trigger above the jump trigger.
If you don't want to add it to every slide, you can add it as a part of your slide master triggers based on when the user has clicked the next button. As Sheena mentioned you'll want to take a look at trigger order if you add it to the slide itself, and it's worth noting this is the order in which triggers are executed.
Glad those resources helped out! I'll defer to the community at large for sound recommendations, but you may also want to take a look at the Building Better Courses side of the forums and see if there are any examples you can pull from.

Thanks Sheena and Ashley! I didn't know about slide master triggers or the order in which you add triggers matter- really good insight!
Do either of you have a recommendation for a site that allow you to download sound effects for free?
