Presenter mode of a Xaringan presentation does not sync

What could this issue be? I haven't

Unbelievable. Literally a few hours after trying things and I accidentally discover the answer immediately after posting a question.

You've got to press c to clone the presentation not copy a window or tab using the web browser ("duplicate tab" in chrome).

This is the coolest thing ever. Thanks for clarifying. I had not read the Ninja presentation carefully enough and was wondering what the clone feature was for. Now I love my Zaringan presentation even more! – Falk
