The keyboard shortcuts work only if the main screen image is selected If the video size is large, or if the animation is complex or if your PC is slow, or if you selected maximum quality in the movie settings, then the initial playback may be slow. You may wait for the "Caching..." blinking message on the status bar to disappear, or continue playback at slow speed. Everything will be fine when you play again.
