why cant i hear the audio from anything other than the first frame?

[Sarah31417650no7t]

i have a voiceover i am trying to animate, and i cant skip to a frame to hear one word (i am playing the animation) i just hear nothing, and have to go back to the first frame to hear anything. i am a beginner.

what do mean by "skip a frame"?

are you trying to pause your sound for one frame (which is doable but likely to be unsatisfactory)?

i mean when i am looking at a seperate frame in the timeline, sorry if that wasnt very obvious

[kglad]

looking at a frame does nothing meaningful.

maybe a screenshot would show what you're having trouble verbalizing.

don't attach a screenshot, copy and paste it into a message.

if i go from 

and play i hear the music,
but if i go to

and play the animation, i hear nothing

set your sound's sync property to stream, not event.

sorry if this is stupid, and if its a long time after but how
i literally started by teaching myself a month ago with no tutorials

click the sound layer frame 1

check the properties panel
