I see the status for this bug has been set to "resolved" "invalid".  What does
that mean exactly?  None of the comments as far as I was able to discern
supplied a working solution to being able to add audio as background throughout
the slideshow.

The audio resets with each successive slide transition.  I am trying to have an
audio track(s) play continuously throughout the slide presentation.  Say I am
doing a 50th anniversary picture collage at a dinner event.  With Impress you
can easily add the pictures and set a 5 second time for each photo and have it
run automatically, however, there is no option to add background music to that
presentation.  The slide transition feature is what happens between each slide,
thus any audio track used as a slide transition stops and then restarts with
each successive slide.

Randy, do you think the slide transition sound is appropriate to your task -
and just some documentation is missing - or would it be an abuse for your use

No obvious DUP found with query
.
Except – may be – "Bug 99793 - the sound starts again with each new slide". But
I have some problems to understand the resolution there.

And I can't see any relation to "Bug 132793 - Impress: add control to play
audio from slides". That's an IMPORT PPTX Problem?!

Test kit ...

There is no bug – except insufficient Help Text, may be
Attached sample presentation and background music, Created with LibI 7.5
(Version doesn't matter). 
1. Download .zip
2. unzip
3. open .odp
4. Run Presentation
   >> background music plays "Stratosphere" by Kevin MacLeod plays on and on

How to create such a presentation:
11. Create your presentation as usual and finally:
12. Select Slide where music should start to play (first slide)
13.  for 'Styles and Formatting' sidebar
   » Sidebar appears
14. Click Slide Transition Icon in Sidebar (or press )
   » Transition effects appear
15. Below Heading 'Modify Transition' ˋSound Dropdown → Other Sound ...
Browse for a sound and select it  → Check 'loop until next sound'ˊ
16.  to launch presentation
   » Presentation starts, music plays on and on, slide change has no influence.

So I think we don't have a bug here. And Checkmark does not need more
explication. The only thing you need to mention is that you must not press
[Apply transition to All Slides] afterwards. That would destroy continuous
music play

content.xml from sample file

(In reply to Randy from comment #7)
No! The music simply comes from a linked file.

Here as att. you see content.xml from unzipped presentation.
Search in it for "Hartford" and you will find 2 relative links to the 
background music .mp3.

An expert might be able to find out how that works from the source  file

Also ASK and OOo forum and so on are full of hints how to get a background
music for all presentation, but I can't think straight enough at the moment to
understand what they tell me

I downloaded that attachment but there was no music file attached and the
sheets were mostly blank.  It was only 21kb in size.  I did figure out how to
use the xbox game bar to screen record the presentation as it played.  That
produced an .mp4 video file.  I then added the audio track I wanted to that
file.  A lot of steps that could be potentially all handled by Impress I think.

Presentation with audio background play

This is a Presentation I created in 2011 with background Music. Starts with
Sheet 1. Music is related to sheet, if I delete it music will not play.
Deleting sheets 3,5,7 will not delete any Music, will not cause Music hickups.

I can't find out how I did that ...

In my use, I am creating an automatic run slides show - each of the slides has
it's own amount of time and it begins to run as soon as you start the show. 
This type of slideshow (whether uniform slide times or individual slide times)
works great for events like memorial services or graduation parties where you
may want to run a slideshow of images either as a one time show as a
presentation or looped to run on a monitor throughout the event.  For longer
slideshows that last 5 to 10 minutes, it would be nice to be able to string a
couple audio files to play in the background with maybe the ability to fade out
the audio at the end of the slideshow if the audio file is longer than the
amount of images.

Thanks for that tip on the SVG.  I wasn't familiar with that format.  That did
work for running in a browser however, converting that to a video file is a
little more difficult.  There are plenty of options for converting to SVG, even
.mp4 to SVG but not the other way around (at least that I could find).

I already created animations some time ago (2011or so) with one music
background all over the presentation. It will take a moment until I will
remember how I did ...

Assuming an advertising use case (shown in a loop with no personal presence)
where a narrator explains what is shown on the slides. Or what is your use
case? => NEEDINFO

What we need is a media properties dialog that allows to set "[ ] Do not stop
on next slide" among other options (currently we have a sidebar deck at the
properties tab). 

I wonder what happens when you go back to the previous slide, however. Guess we
should stop. And what if another media file starts on the next slide, mix both
or stop the first.

OK, can see it as useful. But would probably need some control of the media
playback as in see also.

But the second is already possible, sort of with export to SVG based "SMIL2.0"
format  (see bug 117708) . But a full video encoding e.g. to mp4 is better left
to external capture programs.

Onto the UX-advise pile...
