I'm working on a personal website and have a simple issue: my audio *.ogg files aren't played back neither when referenced directly or through <audio> tag. Firebug reports "audio/ogg" in the server response, but I still added "AddType audio/ogg ogg" to .htaccess with no luck. The "--safe-mode" switch doesn't change this also.

What should I do to have any Firefox user be able to play the files 'out-of-the-box'? Thank you much!

Make sure that the files are encoded with a supported media type.


Can you post a link to a test page?


EDIT: I see that you made another post with a link in it, so I will lock this post.
