Keynote 10.1 presentation won't export audio to movie

I am running into this problem, which many of them have since way back to 2009. Below is my system information:


Mac OS 10.15.6

Keynote 10.1 (6913)


I have a 14 slide presentation with a music playing in the background. The presentation plays as expected in presentation mode, but when I try to export a movie, some animation effects dont work and there is no audio in the exported video. Someone pls help.

Thank you

iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 10.14
