Issue with Play/Pause button on base layers
Hi! I am working on this project, and the play/pause button will work on the base layer, pausing and stopping the audio when pressed. When it goes into one of the other layers of the slide, there is only a play button; it will not pause, and when clicked, it restarts the layer and its audio. I would like for viewers to be able to pause the slide and audio and rewind it if they need to rewatch. I'm not sure what I should do outside of maybe creating custom pause/play buttons, but why is the system play/pause button not working?
Make sure the “Allow seeking” option is set to “Yes” in the slide layer properties for each audio layer.

This is interesting. I found that selecting "Pause timeline of base layer" allowed me to pause the audio playback on a layer. I think this is more interesting as opposed to malfunctioning behavior; the number of situations where you'd need the base layer to continue while you were listening to audio on a slide aren't many, if any. Hope this helps!
Did you set that as a trigger? When I tried this it still did not pause the audiop, just reset it again.

That worked! Thank you so much!
Great Tia! I'd appreciate marking my answer as a solution.
