i've been having specific issues with firefox with audio files, seen in example on some specific websites where audio will refuse to play. this is not the case on other browsers on my computer, where files will play perfectly fine.

i've found this is the case on both the osu! website (the popup audio player will appear at the end of the site, audio unplaying) and the bandcamp website (bandcamp player attempts to load audio, shows loading screen, then skips to the next track). i've only experienced this not happening on soundcloud, although there are probably more examples out there for both working / not working cases. does anyone know a fix?

I'm on the osu site, but do not see anything. Should I click more news? I clicked on a random video, but it works. Can we get betters steps to replicate the issue?

The other site plays for me. see screenshots
