SYMPTOMS
If you press ESC while recording a slide show narration, PowerPoint does not save the recorded sound for the slide that was active when you pressed ESC.

WORKAROUND
To retain the sound for the slide, use one of the following techniques:

 * Right-click anywhere on the current slide, and then click End Show. The slide show ends and the narration for the current slide is saved.
