Cave Man

Really frustrated. Just recorded a 15 minute talk on Keynote. When I play it back in Keynote, everything is fine. However, when I export it, the audio is missing. I can see the video track in Quicktime's Inspector, but there is no audio track. Same if I open with VLC or IINA; video track is there but audio track is missing. Any idea how to get this fixed?
 
Although not a fix, my solution was to set my audio output to Soundflower 2 channel and just do a screen recording with Quicktime. Really annoying that I have to jump through these hoops.
 
When you export as a Movie, there's a choice for either "Self Playing" or "Slideshow Recording". It seems like Self Playing doesn't save the narration with it, but Slideshow Recording does. Could that be the issue?
 
Yes, I was saving as Slideshow Recording but that does not package the audio for me..
 
OK, this is really weird. I opened the Keynote file on another Mac, did the export of the movie and - the audio plays just fine. WTH could be going on??

Had the same problem. In the meantime, I export to Keynote 09, and do it again, and then it works. a mystery.
