Audio doesn't play on Chromium browsers before user interaction

[Taureon]

I selected a visualizer, dropped a music file in, and it just doesn't work at all.
The only thing I can say is that in the console it says something about requiring an user gesture on the page and then the audio to be resumed.

if it works for anyone else, please tell me the exact browser that you are using
just in case it is just a me problem

I think this is a limitation some browsers have to prevent websites from playing audio automatically in the background without any user notice. I don't know if Firefox has this though, have you tried?

after i turn the setting on to allow audio on the page, yea it works.
i still think you should load the audio stuff after the user interacts with the page so maybe it works on chrome again, because almost everyone i ever talked to uses chrome for everything and i happen to have firefox installed

BIG CORRECTION
chrome has the "enable audio" setting too, but you need to go to chrome://settings/content/siteDetails?site=https%3A%2F%2Fnasso.dev
after that you can reload the site and everything should work

Yeah exactly, this would solve the problem!
