Using slick slider JS library slick.js

When adding the same number or less of slides to fit the screen or on desktop or wide screens the slider appears to be a static grid or disabled. On smaller screens or screens affected by the responsive properties I've set are not affected. There are no console errors, not sure if this is intended functionality of the slider library, but I need the slider to loop and be enabled/draggable/autoplay regardless of how many slides can be displayed on the screen.

If you add an extra 6th slide it works with slidesToShow: 5 just like on mobile or smaller screens, but this is not an option for my use case. I have tried a number of combinations of properties etc.
