karen_dredske Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately, the article is not referring to the issue I'm having. Did anybody get this feature to work? How did you do it? Why is Stream playing my additional audio tracks for a few seconds, but then decides the track cannot be played?

MARK13 first off THANK YOU for taking the time to share this behavior in audio tracks with us, we really value your feedback. In this particular instance you are right it's not some isolated behavior, nor are you doing anything out of the ordinary; this is an incident we recently uncovered. We already have the mitigation rolling out as we speak, however it might take a couple of days to be fully available in all regions. I will update this thread when the mitigation rollout is complete. And thanks again for trying audio tracks, I'm sorry your first experience wasn't ideal but rest assured that we'll make sure the next one is!
