Audio issues
I have been using audio using a custom button on my slides. This has worked well for me so far. I am exploring now using the player function instead and am running into major issues. I set a trigger to pause media when the timeline starts on a slide as I don't want pause my entrance animations as well. However, this seems to glitch the player - when the slide starts, the play button flashes then the pause button comes on and then I can't play the audio at all. If I set the trigger to either pause the timeline when the timeline starts or set a trigger to play media when the timeline starts everything functions as it should. I am completely stumped!
If you are committed to using the player functionality to control the audio, then you probably want to put the audio component(s) on a separate layer that "appears" when the timeline for the base slide begins. So the overlay layer (with the audio) plays while the base layer is paused.
Try that and see what happens.
Thank you for this tip!
