.wav audio files in Keynote

my keynote presentation has multiple .wav audio files in it. i know that when the slide advances, the audio begins. if i advance to the next slide during the audio clip the audio stops and the next slide begins... however, if i want to go back to the previous slide, the .wav audio file continues where it left off, rather than starting at the beginning.
*~How can i restart the audio clip without playing it thru? and without a clickable link on the screen?*
(I will not be behind a computer, I will have a remote for my lecture presentation. Therefore, i will not be able to click on the screen, only move back and forth thru slides.)

imac, Mac OS X (10.5.5)

Try using the Build Inspector.

Click on the audio icon so that it is highlighted, in the build inspector set the build-in to Start Audio. Click on the "more options" button at the bottom of the build inspector window and then set "Start Build" to "Automatically after transition", set the delay to 0. This will start the audio at the beginning whether you're advancing to the slide or going back to the slide.
