Thanks for your reply, anne-ology ! fear you misunderstood me ; I first tried opening the .pps file in LibreOffice Impress, before checking to see what would happen in the event I opened it in other media players such as VLC. As stated above, I got no sound when I did so on my Linux Mint 17.1 machine ; I can report that the audio portion of the file didn't work any better in Impress (LO version: 4.3.5.2) on an updated 64-bit Windows 8.1 machine. I had, of course, no difficulty whatever playing it in Powerpoint (MS Office 2013).... Anyone else have any suggestions ? This wonderful presentation is available online - 4peonies.com/VanGogh.pps - so interested LO users can easily give it a whirl and see if they get better results than I do....
