Replay action settings if clicking back in a presentation

I'm using Powerpoing 2003 and have sound files on several slides. I am
setting up a slideshow for visitors to browse on a touch screen kiosk.
However, I cannot figure out how (or if it is even possible) for the sound to
play when you go back to a slide that has already played once (which is
extremely necessary since many visitors will use the kiosk throughout the
day). There were a couple of answers on the website but they contradicted
each other and neither one worked - one mentioned inserting a blank slide and
another mentioned inserting a slide with a 00:00 second transition but
neither one triggered the sound to work. Please advise how to make sound
files (or narration) play every time, when a slide is viewed more than once
in a presentation.
 
Put a blank slide without any transition times before the slides you want to
come back to and link to those instead.

Inserting and hyperlinking to a blank slide (any slide in fact) definitely
works, the zero sec transition is so that it only appears for an instant.
Another possibility is to put the slide with sound in a custom show (of one
slide!)
