Text To Speech w/Video controls

I've added several videos to an E-Learning and aligned them with Text To Speech.  However, I just had a request to add video controls to allow pausing.  When the video pauses, the text to speech continues.  Does anyone have any idea how I can align the text to speech so it pauses when the video is paused?

    I imported a video from a Canva design, and then just added Text-To-Speech directly through Storyline.  Then I added the Video Controls option at the bottom of the screen with a layer over the video to remove the "click to pause" functionality.  When they pause the video using the Video Controls, the Text To Speech keeps going.

  • If you have a trigger to pause the video, I would think you could use the same trigger to pause the audio.
