When watching a video on a web page, I get closed captioning but don't hear the voices - how do I stop captioning and hear the voices?

When I click to view a video on a web page, I hear the music on the video but not the voices. Instead I get closed captioning of what is said. I want to hear it instead.

Thank you for the response, I will try your solutions.

Here's the link of the video in question I was watching: http://www.americastestkitchen.com/episode/463-favorite-ways-with-the-catch-of-the-day?j=4089&e=pjlofgren3@gmail.com&l=26_HTML&u=1427676&mid=7211371&jb=393&sk=4E75281F62BC0436E4D65E8D9214CAAF&extcode=LK15K2AAA&sourcekey=CK15102AA&cds_response_key=&cds_tracking_code=&tag=atk-registrants-20&atc=atkreg

I view this same video on another computer with the Google browser and it works fine.

Ahh. Load the page. Let the clip start. Move the mouse to the bottom right of the video and press the "Closed Caption" button.
