Does not load in Chrome for Android

[jackpf]

Can't seem to get it to load properly with chrome on android, the spinning arrow displays indefinitely.

However if I click the spinning arrow, the audio will start to play. So it must just be a UI problem.

Happens on the demo site as well.

Unable to reproduce in Chrome 48. Please confirm that this is still broken and I will happily investigate further.

Just tested on Chrome 47.0.2526.83 on Android 5.1.1 and can confirm the spinner doesn't automatically change to a play/pause button unless clicked manually

Interesting, now I need to find an Android 5.1 device to test against

I have an android device, with chrome 48. I can confirm that the auto-play feature does not work properly. I must click on the player before it will then load. once clicked, audio will then play. This is the tag im using:

   <audio autoplay="autoplay"> 
      <source src="OVERWERK_Daybreak.ogx"> 
   </audio> 

It auto-plays fine in desktop environments. 
I can try it with an mp3, but I don’t think that’s the issue.

Is this related to what Webview has in place to prevent data usage by autoplaying content or allowing JS to trigger playing of content without a manual click?
