"Reading Animation Group Failed" Error Appears when Loading the PPT File with Aspose.Slides for .NET 23.12

Hi Aspose team, when I loaded the attached PPT sample with Aspose Slide 23.12, throw exception “reading animation group failed.”. With Aspose Slide 21.2, PPT file loaded successfully.
Please help me investigate it. Thank you.

Here is the code, I using .NET5:

try
{
    using (var inputStream = new FileStream(inputFile, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.ReadWrite))
    {
        presentation = new Presentation(inputStream);
    }
}
catch (Exception e)
{
    returnedMsg = e.Message;
}
