HTML <audio> autoplay Attribute is not autoplay-CodePudding

Ex. https://www.bunlongheng.com/sound/police-4

I don't know why the audio is not playing automatically. Is it the restriction by my browser or my code is wrong? I tested in Chrome & Firefox.

<audio id="myAudio" controls autoplay>
  
    <source src="/assets/sounds/police-4.ogg" type="audio/ogg">
   

  <source src="/assets/sounds/police-4.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">

  Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>

As you can see, I've already added autoplay

Click play work, but I need to make it auto-play.

CodePudding user response：

Try adding the word muted after the word autoplay because some other browsers don't support autoplay unless muted

CodePudding user response：

Chromium based internet browsers do not support autoplay. Although to bypass this you can set it to muted autoplay by doing

<audio id="myAudio" controls autoplay muted>

But the audio will not automatically play. The user must manually select the mute button for it to start playing.
