Firefox 28.0 on Windows 7 does not use my default audio player for mp3 files. I tried "safe mode" and it works the same way.

If I run Internet explorer it works fine.

I am positive I have the default for mp3 set to Windows media player.

Firefox does use the default player for wav files.

Firefox options > Applications. Go thru this list CAREFULLY ! ! !

Make sure everything is set to the program you want to use.

Note that current Firefox can and probably will use the built-in HTML5 media player to play mp3 files in case you use a direct link or an audio tag and not an embed or object tag with a type attribute that would use a plugin.
In case of the latter either the QuickTime plugin might be used (if the type is missing) or a plugin that supports the content type that is specified.
