Hi, Gabrielle.
Thank you for reaching out!
Some modern browsers no longer allow audio to autoplay. If you have audio on the first slide or set it to advance automatically, the browser will expect the user to click.
If this is your scenario, here are two workarounds:
-
Set the first slide (or the slide that comes before the one with the audio) to advance only when learners click a button or interact with it in some way.
-
Insert silent audio on the first slide to trigger the Play button. You can use Storyline's Record Mic option for this.
Let me know if this works!
