Interestingly enough I am working on an old PPT presentation that I've
imported into Impress & resaved as a OOo presentation. The document uses
WAV files for each slide via Slide Transitions. Unfortunately I can't
get it to play any WAV files.

Under Slide Transition|Modify transtion|Sound and I then select "Other
Sound", then select the WAV file, then select the Play button while
still in the selection box the sound plays loud and clear. I then select
"Open" and the sound name appears next to the Sound box in the Slide
Transition|Modify transition box.

However, when I click Play in the Slide Transition box, or when I do
Slide Show there is no sound, zero, nada.

OOo 2.2.1(rc2) linux. I thought perhaps it might be because I am using
an rc, so I tried in StarOffice8 and a standard 2.2.0 version w/same
results. So then I tried inserting via Insert|Movie and Sound - comes
back as "The format of the selected file is not supported". Odd, since
WAVE Audio clearly shows up as a valid selection option under the Insert
Movie and Sound File type dropdown.
