Description

When the audio plays in the multi-media search results a strange line can be seen blinking as it moves along the length of the waveform.

Reproduction

1. Search for any term.
2. Play the box audio in the multi-media search results.
3. See the line.

Environment

• Device: MacBook Pro
• OS: macOS 12.5 Monterey

Additional context

As this moves along the length of the waveform with the time, it might somehow be related to the progress bar.

Hi @dhruvkb , I am a student who needs to contribute to an OpenSource project in my coursework, so I was wondering if you can assign this to me. This issue seems to be a good initiation of my journey towards contribution to FOSS projects. Can you please assign this to me?

Sure @shishirgupta07, go ahead. If you need help feel free to comment here or send a message in the #openverse channel in the Making WordPress Slack workspace.

On a side note and just out of curiosity, which institute are you from?
