Update: Now that we figured out the 'challenging method', for an easier solution simply select  'Force Media Plugins' when uploading the quiz you won't need to copy, paste, and customize the code as shown in the screencast.  Other steps shown (putting everything in the same directory, zipping, uploading, choosing the file, etc. )  still apply.  Screencast update here.
