This URL, when hit directly, it plays.

http://ezto-cf-media.mheducation.com/Media/Connect_Production/Externalized/Audio/13252700146307755.mp3

But when embedded in audio tag, it fails to play and firefox shows "Media resource http://ezto-cf-media.mheducation.com/Media/Connect_Production/Externalized/Audio/13252700146307755.mp3 could not be decoded. All candidate resources failed to load. Media load paused."

Audio tag is implemented as,

<audio class="audio-player" controls><source type="audio/mpeg" src="http://ezto-cf-media.mheducation.com/Media/Connect_Production/Externalized/Audio/13252700146307755.mp3"></source></audio>

I'm not sure what kind of file this is because the Network Monitor shows it as type audio/x-wav when used with the audio tag. When the URL is loaded via the location bar then the Network Monitor shows audio/mpeg. The decoder used with the audio tag might not recognize the file correctly.

The "Content-type" in response header shows "audio/mpeg". Can you please let me know where you are seeing "audio/x-wav". Attaching screenshot.

Thanks
