Flashing animation when activating a .oam file?

I have exported an animation from Animate CC as a .oam file to be used in an HTML5 screen in Captivate 2017.  Everything works fine, but when I [show] the animation after an interactive button click, the .oam file plays, but not before flashing white a few times.  First image below shows the white flashing box visible for a few seconds, then the animation plays as shown in the second image below.

Do you have Border and Scrolling checked with the OAM properties in Captivate. Un-checking those might make it look like there is less loading flicker?

Two workarounds you could try (never tried them on an OAM but flashing also happens with other objects): try to add a fade in transition (doubt about that) or instead of using Show as command, use micronavigation. That means that you have the OAM later on the timeline and navigate to its start frame with the action.
