How to Stop Audio Replay on Base Layers?
I am creating a four layer slide. I would like the audio to play during the base layer and stop when the user clicks into a different layer. When they return back to the base layer, , how do I get the audio not to replay?
Correct. I would consider using the Hide Layer Trigger here instead of jumping to slide.

Hello
Thank you for your question. Just to clarify . . . are you saying that the audio replays on the base Layer or on a different layer?
the audio replays on the base layer, but I only want it to play once.
So, what triggers are you using to go back to the base layer. The "Hide Layer" trigger for example should not replay your audio. Depending on your Layer Properties, you layer can pause your audio and then hiding the layer would resume the audio. That can fixed with a stop media trigger, but without seeing the slide in the Storyline file, I am just guessing since I do not know how you have triggered this interaction to happen.
Here are the triggers I am using:
Once on a different layer I have the trigger set to jump to the base layer once the timeline ends. Is this where I should set it to hide the layer?
Correct. I would consider using the Hide Layer Trigger here instead of jumping to slide.
That worked! Thank you so much :)
