Your answer was better than I originally thought.  Ctrl-Shift-spacebar does not work for the presenter until the presenter clicks away from the content being shared (like the webcam I mentioned earlier.)  In other words, you have to let your computer know that the keyboard shortcut is for your computer, not the one you're controlling.

    Thanks
