When using build slides with the Tile and Sub-title template, we have some
slides that do not have a Title. In the Slide Show, those slides start with
a blank slide and require a second click to show the text. Simply deleting
the Title box in the slide does not fix the problem. What is the work-around?

  It sounds like you've applied animation schemes to the slides or to the masters.
For the slides with no title, you'll need to apply a different scheme or custom
animation to the slide.

For example, if you choose the No Animation scheme, the subtitle/body text will simply
appear along with the slide when there's no title.

If you need the subtitle/body to animate, then use custom animation; give it the
entrance effect you want, and have it start With Previous instead of On Click. Since
there IS no previous, it'll animate on as soon as the slide appears.
