I am (desperately) trying to embed two sound files on one Impress slide. Expected behaviour is that the file starts when it is clicked. However, there is no way to do so. What I tried: [1] Insert -> Audio or Video (first file starts automatically, second file is not played when clicked on) [2] Create an graphic object (box), right click -> Interaction - Play sound (does not work, goes onwards to the next slide when in Presentation mode; strangely, when not in Presentation mode, it works)
I tried all that you said and I don't have the problems. You did not mention your operating system.

Created attachment 136619 [details] Impress file with sound The attached Impress file shows (on my computer) the behaviour I regard as bug (i.e., when the presentation mode is started the sound file starts immediately while click-to-start would be the expected behaviour).

Ok, I might have been somehow confused in my comment 1 regarding the first case. I realized it really is not possible when you have a media file directly embedded. It only works with some graphical object + interaction. https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/4611/is-it-possible-to-play-a-video-on-click-in-an-impress-slideshow/ Sebastian: do you still have a problem with the object interaction?

It still doesn't work, the solution listed on https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/4611/is-it-possible-to-play-a-video-on-click-in-an-impress-slideshow/ works partially: If there is only one sound / video file, it is working, with more than one it doesn't.
Created attachment 142112 [details] Example file with two different sound files in object interactions working fine Works fine for me, see this file.

Even though I can't hear any sound playing, it seems to work in principle. I believe, the problem is (kind of) solved. Thank you!
The content of attachment 142112 [details] has been deleted for the following reason: Mistake, no sounds were embedded
Argh, I realised that no audio files are embedded into the file, if we use the "Interaction - Play sound". They are always pointing to file paths in the system. This is really kind of a mess. I tried the Media player method mentioned here, but it crashed when I closed the media player: https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/83486/impress-how-play-embedded-audio-automatically/ I have to discuss with someone about this.

Now I found this old report, which I've even set a bug bounty on: bug 34940 It would allow to have click interactions with *embedded* media, so we would not have to rely on *linked* media.
