Is there a way in a drag and drop to only have an audio on an image play once

Hello, I have a drag and drop question in Captivate 9

I my drag and drop set to two attempts.   I wanted to have the first incorrect response say "You are incorrect"

However, after the second attempt I have actions on the incorrect choice to play "This is still incorrect, here is the correct answer"

(for example, the responses are different for each question)

Problem is, when the second incorrect attempt happens, BOTH the "you are incorrect" AND the "this is still incorrect" audio places.

I can't manage to hold back the first audio in any way since the actions for built in interactions are limited.

    Is this a Knowledge check slide or a scored D&D slide? Are you on the latest versio 9.0.2.437?

    How do you trigger the audio, please? It is apparently not by using the Play Audio command, because that allows only one clip to be played at the same time, never multiple clips.

    Reason for my first questions, have a look at this article which is not about audio but about multiple feedback which is a similar situation:

      It's just a knowledge check.  Nothing that is graded.

      Right now I have the attempt response attached to the incorrect message that shows up with the drag and drop.

      On the Failure message, I have it executing actions that play the audio.

      Problem is the Incorrect message shows up on both the incorrect attempts AND the on the failure, it ends up playing during the same time that the failure audio plays.

      This link has some promise, thank you.  I will investigate this for now.

      Do not attach it to the failure message. The 'Failure' event is actually only happening after the last attempt, that word is not well chosen (should have been Last Attempt, similar to question slides). You can attach it to the failure message if a different message appears for each attempt, which is what I explained in that article. Your problem is due to the fact that you combined a Play Audio command (I suspect) with object audio (the audio attached to the failure message).
