First scene (w/Audio play selected) will not play automatically.
Requires an additional button trigger to emit sound.

Good afternoon
This is probably to browser constraints about interaction
As per official browser policies, audio cannot be auto-played anymore but requires the user to interact with the website first
Due to this, it is to be considered the correct behavior

I just tried this with Edge, Firefox an Opera.
Only Firefox didn't play music/sound when a new page was loaded.
It's a setting in Firefox.

You can change it, so yes it's not a WebAnimator fault.
On an iPad iPhone it's completely disabled and you have to ask for permission. However you can find out if an Apple device is used and then you can ask for permission.

So for all people who pull up the webAnimator creation, they need to be forwarned that it may not play on initilazation.

You are not offering an easy workaround!
Perhaps a (Turn -on sound ) Icon at the of the web page!
