Sounds don't play on successive slides

I have a keynote presentation (a "game show"). On each slide 5 different sounds (bells, buzzers, etc.) are to play on click. No matter which slide I play the sounds perform as expected on that slide, but on the following slides they remain silent. If it works on slide 1 it doesn't work on 2, If it works on 7 it doesn't work on 8.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.2

My prayers have been answered. I thought for sure Gary Scotland would have the answer. The sounds are all the same on every slide (bell ding SFX for giving right answer). They all play in order, each when a click reveals a quiz "answer." Not sure how I had them all set to play across slides, but they were, and that was the problem. When I unchecked "Play audio across slides" it worked fine. Molto Bene! Thank you
