Creating an interactive flowchart on a community issue within the framework you provided involves multiple steps. While I can't create an actual visual flowchart within this text format or add sound effects, I can guide you step-by-step on how to design your interactive flowchart using Google Slides or Lucidchart with a detailed outline of the content and structure you may want to follow.

Sound Elements:
- Each step could have a distinct sound (clicking sound, short ding, or transition music) to create an interactive feel.
- Background music can be used continuously but is adjustable in volume on each slide.
How to Create in Google Slides:
- Open Google Slides and create a new presentation.
- Use shapes (rectangles, circles, arrows) to create your flowchart.
- Add text boxes to label each step as outlined above.
- Use the "Insert" menu to add links to external content (like surveys).
- Add transition sounds using the "Transition" option in Slide settings.
- To embed the background music, use the "Insert" > "Audio" option and select the appropriate music file from your Google Drive.
How to Create in Lucidchart:
- Open Lucidchart and start a new document.
- Use flowchart shapes available in the menu to outline each step.
- Add text to each shape as per the outline.
- Use the "Comment" or "Link" feature to provide additional resources.
- Use the sound feature within the platform if available for sound effects.
Final Touches:
- Review your flowchart to ensure clarity and interactivity.
- Test all links and sounds to enhance user experience.
- If you plan to present it to your class or community, prepare to discuss the importance of the issue and the steps involved.
