Why won't the last ppt slide audio in Captivate 8 project not play?

I created a project using Captivate 8 importing a power point presentation and then recording to each slide. Everything turned out great except the last slide, the audio won't play.

I tried redoing it and playing with several different settings. Any ideas what I might try next?

Thank you BDuckWorks and Lilybiri for your replies.  I did more research on Captivate 8 and apparently it is know that there are issues with importing ppt's.

The solution I went with was to copy my content from my ppt to Captivate's theme content builder, then I had to insert my audio from my first project that had the ppt's. t worked.

I won't be importing ppt's into Captivate anymore.

Things to try:

Add a new blank slide in the Cp project, you can set the action to the slide with audio troubles to Exit (the course) on Exit (of the slide). I didn't realize how redundant that was, until now!

Alternatively, you can add a blank slide to the PPT file, but I think adding it to Cp will work.

Did you leave some space after the audio clip and before? Try to avoid audio clips that start at the first frame of a slide and end at the last frame.

Is it a blank or a responsive project? How did you test?
