Music in LR slideshow repeats at odd intervals

Okay, here's an odd one. I'm making a slide show in LR. All Photos & music are original. No copies or copyright issues. Somewhere in the slideshow, after playing for about 10 seconds, one of the songs will just start over from the beginning. I've tried moving the songs up & down the queue and this might fix the problem for one song but then the problem shows up in a different song. I am using 10 songs to fill the full 30 minutes. Anybody ever hear of this?

Correct answer Rob_Cullen

You could try using a Sound Editor (such as the free Audacity) and combine enough songs to last your 30mins, then you have only one music track to add in the SS.

Might take some learning to achieve but might eliminate your 'repeating' problem.

Otherwise I do not have an answer.

That is a great idea and I already have an Audacity account. I'll try it.

If experiencing odd behaviour, then try resetting the LrC preference file by following the process described in Method 1 at https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/reset-preferences.html

Okay, I tried resetting preferences. Didn't help. I also ran the slide show inside LR just in case the error was happening on the export. That didn't help either. I'm still stuck.
