I have advance automatically set. And I set this for all slides. However,
the first slide does not advance automatically. Once I manually advance the
first slide all the rest advance automatically.

Any idea how to correct this?
 
Auto transitions wait for animations to fiinish and also (unless you tell it
not to) videos, sounds etc to complete. Could that be the problem. Is there
something maybe on the Title master effecting slide 1?

Find the sound in custom animation and then go to effect options. Change the
stop playing option to "after x slides" (where x is the number of slides you
want the music to play for - probably all)

To advance slides, set the time, and click apply to all slides, apply button
very important, can be used for many actions, and if you want music to
continousy
play, open custom animation pane, double click sound animation,on the first
tabbput 999 in the stop playing box, hope this is clear. Hal
