Sound on embedded video - PowerPoint slides shared screen

I have a panelist scheduled for a webinar next week. She reviewed her slides with me today. She has short embedded video on two PowerPoint slides. During our practice session, I could not hear the sound as she played the video. I am the host and she is a panelist. Is there a setting I need to change on my account or in that specific meeting that allows sound from videos embedded in shared PowerPoint slides to be heard by me and all participants?

When the panelist starts their share they need to be sure to check the boxes, "Share Audio" and "Optimize for Video".

In addition, can the presenter have their presenter thumbnail in the corner of the power point that has embedded video clips within?
