After exporting Power BI report to PowerPoint (via Export > PowerPoint > Embed live data), set the embedded object to "Show as Saved Image", save the pptx file, then open back in the browser, the embedded Power BI object remains live regardless of how it was configured on the desktop app.
In addition, the embedded Power BI object persists to be on top in the Z-order ignoring the configuration made on the desktop app when opened in the browser.
