Audio not playing in Timeline

I have imported an audio file to my project. i tried both wav and mp3. I can hear it in the test but it does not play in the timeline. I have it set to stream, tried other settings there and it's still not playing.

 

This is the very latest update as of Jan 31. I do this all the time and for some reason today it's giving me trouble.

 

Anyone else seeing this issue?

 

Thanks

Dave

    Hi Dave - There is an issue with an authortime audio playback on Mac in Animate version 22.0.3. we are investigating it. You may consider using version 22.0.2 till this issue is resolved.

    @timaging Just wanted to let you know that the issue of audio not playing in Timeline and Library on Mac is fixed in Animate v22.0.4 update released today. Please update your copy of Animate to the latest using Creative Cloud desktop app.

     

    Thanks!

    what animate version?

     

    does your sound play ok in the animate library, but not in the timeline with the sound's sync property set to stream?

    I can confirm sound is now broken after the most recent update 😞
    I jusyt updated and all of my current files with sound that have worked for weeks now won't play the sound at all. This is bad but hoping for a fix asap as my projects have come to a halt 😞
