For what you want, you would need to produce a mixed mode CD, which PowerPoint
doesn't do automatically. I recommend that you use Package for CD, but select
the Package to Folder option. Then, in Nero select Mixed Mode CD. Select all
of the files in the folder that PowerPoint produced and drag them to the data
portion of the setup. Put your music files in the track section.

I haven't tested this, but it *should* work if your standalone player can
recognize the music portion of a mixed mode CD.
