huc,
save your presentation.
Then if you start the really old media player
start > run > mplay32 (on windows xp)
open your audio file
edit menu > copy object
powerpoint > paste
Then you should have an icon representing your audio file
during a slideshow you can click the object to start the audio, then you
have both a pause and stop button
Cheers
