Question

Audio after publishing does not play, have to restart play bar and then audio plays

 I have  project created in Captivate 2017.  I imported audio and plays when I view the file in preview.  When I export and publish the file on the server when  I play it on the internet the file plays but no audio on the first slide unless I stop the playbar and restart it then the audio on slide one will play.   I have tried several things to get it to play on the first slide but once published it will not. 

Any ideas?

Thank you

Hello,

I had the same issue. I changed my default browser from Chrome to Microsoft Edge browser.

It worked and I didn't have to create a work around or have a play button display in preview or my lms.

Change your default browser. Hope this is helpful.

I had tied Rod's suggestion, and it did not work for me the first time.

I did find a work around that worked for me. On the first slide with audio, I had attached the audio file using the Options button. I removed the file from there and used an Action to play the audio on Enter.

Try adding a short blank slide BEFORE your current slide.  And make sure there is a gap between your audio files and the beginning or end of the slide timeline.  At least 1/10 second should do it. See if that helps.
