I noticed that the music video takes some time to load, while the slideshow is running silent. So to speed things up, click on the sound icon at the lower left side of the slideshow box. If the video goes full screen and covers my slideshow, click the top right corner of the video and it will minimize back down. Then you can further minimize it by clicking on the red “x” on the upper right corner of the video display screen. I hope this works;) Enjoy!
