Keynote - Audio Record Slideshow is not Playing

I am working on a memorial slideshow. I've input all of the pics and added 4 songs (mp3) to the record slideshow area so that all 4 songs would play during the slideshow. The songs will not play and I've tried everything. Help!

Keynote song from Music stops in the middle of the same slide. Hi. I want to add two songs to my Keynote presentation to play over two different sections of my presentation, which is about 35 slides. Each slide duration is 5 seconds, and set to run automatically. I added the first song untrimmed from Music for the first section, but the songs fades out and stops 2 seconds into the second slide. I tried a different song from Music and it stops at the same spot in the second slide. I work with a copy of the original presentation because I don't want to screw up the original file until I can get the music to work. I have reviewed all of the attached settings and I am playing the songs untrimmed. I'm at a loss as to why this keeps happening. I appreciate all replies. Ventura 13.2.1 Keynote 12.2.1 Bro

your screenshot shows the first file is playing with output set to about 50%

is sound playing correctly from a webpage iTunes or from the sound file played in Quicktime player? test using the built in speaker output to bypass any connected sound equipment:

go to: Apple Menu > System preferences > Sound > Output
