Video from Web - Have it auto play once the slide audio is complete?

I have a video that is from the web that I put on a slide. I want it to automatically start playing once the slide audio is complete. How do I do this?

      Thanks, but it isn't working with my video. Is it because it is a "Video from a website" instead of a "video from a file"?

        Oh, that's probably the issue. I just looked at the User Guide, and it says "Website videos play independently of the slide and aren't controlled by the timeline." 

        Can you add triggers that control the video?  If so, you could add a trigger that pauses the video when the timeline starts, and add another trigger that restarts the video when the audio completes. (I haven't worked with online videos, so I don't know if triggers can control them or not.)

        Otherwise, insert the video on a layer. On the base, add a trigger that shows the layer when the audio completes.
