How do I limit audio to play just once on first visits to slide?

HI All,  I have an assessment/activity with audio narrated instructions.   

I am trying to only allow the learner to be able to try the activity 2 x before they get a sorry response.

and I only want the audio instructions to play the first time the learner comes to the slide, don't want it to repeat when the slide returns to its initial state.

have to do initial state, since this is a drag and drop activity and I want the items/terms to go back to where they started.

so, this is where I am. can get only one of the variables to work at a time, not both.

either the audio will only play once and then stop, but it doesn't stop going to "try again".

or I can have the variable work where the learner can only try 2 times and then they get the sorry layer.  each time they return to the initial state the audio plays, which can be annoying.

Question... can you have two variables which will work together?  stop the audio after the instructions play once, and only allow the learner 2 tries at the activity, oh, and it has to return to the initial state so the drag and drop terms return to their initial state.

Thanks, Rhonda
