Audio won't play from the start of the slide

Question

Good afternoon all,
I'm new at this and recently created my first instructive
demo. I recorded and have everything synching up fine but the audio
in two of the slides WON'T start the audio from the first words
recorded. The audio begins in the middle of the second or third
word spoken.
This only happens when I play the entire demo or from a
certain point in the demo to the end. If I play the two slide with
the audios indiviually you can hear my every word from start to
finish and if I play the audio ONLY I hear it fine also.
I have tried starting the audio a few seconds after the
screen being demonstrated starts, re-recording the audio, adding
silence in the beginning.........................anyone have any
suggections. I've done everything I know to do but start over from
scratch.........I didn't say that...........LOL!

Answer 1

My suggestion was going to be ensure the audio file starts a
second or
two after the slide starts, but seems you're already doing
that.
So if you've tried all those things and no luck, then I'd
recreate the
slide entirely.
Insert a blank slide, copy the background from the problem
slide to the
blank slide ('paste as background'), then insert the audio
and test it.
If it works as expected, then copy/paste any other screen
elements from
the problem slide, then delete that problem slide.
Helps?
