I think that the issue might be similar to the following presentation

There is a tool that already does this (I'm one of its contributors,
although I cannot code): SuperShow
(http://www.rastersoft.com/programas/supershow.html). It's written in
python using GTK and GStreamer. It's in development, although is very
usable.

Audio recording isn't implemented yet. And audio is played continuously,
it isn't paused after each slide (I don't know whether this might be a
requirement for you).

I hope it helps,
