To avoid this sort of problem, I am increasingly using hidden text rather than Alt Text for images.

With enough research it should be possible to create a list of do's and don'ts that result in a consistent user experience. However, with your comments about Slide Master content and footers, two or more screen readers, three viewing modes in PowerPoint and two in the PDF it seems that an awful lot of research will be required.

I'm going to work on this and ensure I keep better records than I did previously.
