Keep audio playing from one slide layer to another without stopping it

On my base layer, I have 4 steps buttons. Each has its own layer. On each step layer, there is a video or an image with a button on the image or video to expand it, which is also on its own layer. The step layer has audio. When the user clicks on the expand button, the image/video opens bigger on its own layer. I would like the audio from the step layer to continue playing when the user expands the image/video. I have all the layers set to this:
I don't want to uncheck "Pause timeline of base layer" because I'm going to obviously keep hearing the audio on the base layer.

Set the expand layer not to hide other layers.
That works, but I don't want it to show the other layer, which it's doing.
In the expand layer's timeline, deselect the visibility (eye icon) of every item on the other layer that you don't want showing.
It only shows the items from the base layer, which I've already set to hidden and the items on the expanded layer. It doesn't show any items from the layer that has the expand button.
Cover them up. See attached sample for an idea of how to do that.
