Hei fmdeveloper! I figured it out: You have to upload the .htaccess-file to the same folder where you placed your index-file. The information in the .htaccess-file is the following:

AddType audio/ogg .oga AddType video/ogg .ogv AddType application/ogg .ogg

BUT: When you upload the .htaccess file with a ftp-program you have to change your options to ASCII Mode! DO NOT use Binary Mode for upload!

I don't get audio in any browser I tried. You will probably get a better answer in an HTML 5 forum...
