It sounds like you need to adjust your audio clips on your timeline. Without seeing the file it's hard to tell.

    The audio in the timeline is synced just as it should. The issue is in the preview and publishing mode, I play the clip and when the audio ends several seconds up to a minute of no sound is added.

      Hi Thomas!

      Thanks for reaching out! Did you publish this project for Web or LMS? We would suggest testing in the same environment where your users will see it.

      In other words:

      • If you published for Web, test the published file in Review 360.
      • If you published for LMS, test the published file in SCORM Cloud.

      Please let me know if that made a difference or if you have any more questions!

        I am running in the user space. What I am trying to get to work is as follows.
        I have 7 place holders each with their own button and each connected with their own audio clip. When the user hits a button an audio clip will start, once the audio clip ends the user will end up back where the 7 placeholders are. I want the placeholders to turn dark grey once the user has listened to an audio clip and has returned to where the placeholders are. This is where I am having issues. I have tried both built in states as well as Custom states. I have tried triggers with and without conditions.
        Presently the trigger is
        Set State of placeholder to complete when the timline ends on nn if the state of nn =Visited. I have also tried it without the condition, none of them work. I have also tried with just the build in Visited state, did not work. It did work once yesterday on one of the placeholders but none after that. I have tried deleting, starting over, editing .
        Any idea?
