Autoplay an audio with HTML5 embed tag while the player is invisible

Question

I want to autoplay a MP3 audio file and I don\'t want the player to be visible.

Answer 1

Sometimes autoplay is needed. Someone once pointed out that the famous Les Paul Google Doodle (2011) required autoplay, even though the sound didn't play until you moused over the guitar strings. If it's done with class and great design it can be beautiful (especially movie websites with immersive design)
