Julien's on the right track. If you create slide with an Animation Sound Effect and save it, it will work. If you copy that file to a different directory, the sound will no longer play. The reason why there was so much confusion over this bug, is that sound effect work until the file that they were created in is moved to a new location.

So the issue here is the sound player is using the full system path of the sound effect, instead of using the relative location of the sound effect within the ODP file.
