I'm considering having an opening slide with some music. I'd like the music to play in a loop until the learner clicks a button to go to the next slide. Is that possible? If so, how do I do it? Is there a way to create a trigger that replays the audio?
I realise that this is an old post but if anyone encounters any issues looping audio/video as I have previously then they may find the workaround in this post helpful.
Really sorry about that, George! A bug popped up in the most recent version of Storyline where "when media completes" triggers don't work in Storyline Preview. Fortunately, they still work correctly in published content.
Our team is working on a fix for that bug as we speak--I'll let you know as soon as the fix is released!
I’m excited to let you know that we just released another update for Articulate 360, and you can check out the new features and fixes in the release notes!
One of the fixes addresses an issue in Storyline 360 where the 'when-the-media-completes' trigger did not work in Preview.
Simply launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button for each application. Details here.

Thanks David. this linked worked.
I am using Storyline 2.
I had a 13 sec video. And what made it work was the addition of the silent audio
and using triggers to loop between the too.
For those who may run into this problem. Select your video and under option tab make sure your video is set to play : automatically
:)
Excellent, I'm pleased that the link helped you Ahssan.
this function has stopped working in Preview mode in SL 360
Does it still work in the published version?
yes however it use to also work in preview mode. it would be good to get that function back.
Hi George,
I don't see any similar reports of this function breaking in an update, would you be able to provide a Presenter package to our team to take a look?
here you go
