<audio> element not working at all in Safari

Question

I\'m trying to add music to a virtual tour application I\'m writing in JS and jQuery and so far my code, shown below, works great in Chrome, FF, IE9, and Opera. But in Safari 5

Answer 1

So the problem turned out to be with QuickTime. I guess I must of deleted it off of my machine awhile back because I didn't think I needed it. After I re-installed QuickTime, Safari plays music using the audio tag with no problem. Autoplay even works too.

Kinda funny how the champion of native HTML5 audio/video support, doesn't support HTML5 audio/video without a plugin...
