pictures scramble when adding to slideshow?

I am building a slideshow in photos on a macbook pro. I already have the order of the photos correctly in an existing album. When i drop the photos in the slideshow, it randomly orders the photos messing up the sequence. How can i keep the order / sequence of my 200 photos in the album when creating the slideshow?

MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2010), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)

Create the slideshow directly from the album. Do not drag the photos from the album to the slideshow, see: : How to turn an Album into a Slideshow and Preserve the Sorting


Ctrl-click the album in the sidebar. If the sidebar is not visible, reveal the sidebar with ⇧⌘S

From the contextual menu after ctrl-clicking select the command "Create > Slideshow".

It is important to select the album, not the photos in the album.
