Incompatibility between Tablet PC and XP when using Powerpoint and Sounds

When using TabletPC, Powerpoint 2003 *fails* to show a presentation
correctly (works on XP):
This is a definite bug, how do I report it so that it gets fixed?

Reproduce as follows:

Configure Powerpoint not to show the Black 'end of show' slide
(Optional, but makes example easier to grasp)

Create a Presentation called SLAVE with one slide.
Insert a Sound that automatically plays on the that slide.
Click Slide Transition so that the Slide auto-advanced after a period of
time.

Create a Presentation called MASTER with two slides.
Insert a Sound that automatically plays on the first slide.
Click Slide Transition so that the Slide auto-advanced after a period of
time.

Create a second slide that does not auto-advance and insert a different
sound.
Now create a hyperlink to SLAVE.

Run MASTER, wait then click the hyperlink.

Run the presentation on XP - it works as expected.
On Tablet PC the Slave auto-advance *fails* and requires a click.

I think it has something to do with the Sounds. Missing *any* sound
insertion off
any of the slides will result in success.

Addendum
The sounds I am adding are very short Midi files which program Audio/Visual
equipment.
The transition delay times are 2 seconds.
