autoplay embedded objects

[Joel Wynes]

When you insert a sound file into a slide you can set the custom animations
to have the sound file autoplay when the slide opens, but when you save the
presentation as a Web Page it eliminates the autoplay settings for some
reason. I have been exploring the option of adding an embedded sound file,
but then I can not seem to locate where to set the embedded sound file to
autoplay. We must save these presentations as Web Pages because they tie
into an intranet application that we have created to specifically view them.
As it is right now, the user must click the sound icon to begin playing the
sound file. Does anybody know a work around this, or how to autoplay an
embedded file that will keep it's autoplay properties when saved as a Web
Page? Any and all help is appreciated.

When you save as web page, click on the publish button to bring up a menu.
Then, click on web options. Tick the "Show slide animation while browsing".
Now, publish the web page again to see if it works.
