When I insert a song into pp and set it to start after 20 seconds the music
plays but for the slide won't advance. If I start the song from the beginning
it works fine but I don't want the first 20 seconds of the song in the
presentation. How do I get it to work?

Hi MAM

Is there anything on the slide set to 'after previous'? If so it will wait
for the song to finish before it happens. But you say the problem doesn't
occur when you start the song from the beginning so I guess not.... What I
would do is edit the sound file in audacity (free) and re-insert it:
