Playing audio files incorrectly

Explorer ,
Sep 07, 2017 Sep 07, 2017

I have an audio file on each slide in my project.  I have noticed that when the presentation on the slide has finished,  and the audio for that slide stops, the audio file which is is assigned to the next slide begins playing.  This happens before I press the NEXT button to advance to the next slide.  Has anyone else experienced this bug?

Common problem.  Make sure each audio clip is on its own slide and that the ends of the audio clips do not touch the ends of the slide timeline.

Just a visual adding to Rod's answer. Those gaps will prevent that Captivate merges all audio in one big project audio clip.

Thank you for the information.  I learned that after working with CP support, that because my Next button which is appears at the end of the timeline was grouped with Back button, the "Pause After" did not function.  The slide did not advance to the next slide, but the audio for the next slide did played.  As suggested by CP support, I ungrouped the buttons and the problem went away.  CP support told me that grouping buttons will somehow inactivate the "Pause After" function.  I thought this was strange, but after ungrouping the buttons the problem did go away.

That is a strange bug. Which version are you using? Can you post the exact version number?
