title: HTML5 Audio Tag Plays, but Controls Not Working as Expected
body: <p>So, the audio tag works and plays audio fine, but the seek/navigation doesn't work. It doesn't travel with the audio and you can't seek/navigate through the player. This is what it looks like for a 1-minute and 23-second audio clip:</p>

  <p>Also, when the player is done, the time/duration is <em>off</em>. I don't know how else to explain it. This is what it looks like after:</p>

  <p>This is the code for the player:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;audio controls preload="auto"&gt;
      &lt;source src="https://third.party.com/file.mp3" type="audio/mpeg"&gt;
  &lt;/audio&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've never really worked with the <code>&lt;audio&gt;</code> tag before, so maybe there are nuances I'm missing, but it seemed pretty straight-forward. Am I missing something?</p>

  <p><strong>Edit</strong> - More Details</p>
  
  <p>I've added a <a href="https://jsfiddle.net/py3je9qx/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">JSFiddle</a>. Also, this appears to happen with longer audio clips, so this may be bandwidth related. When a clip is a few seconds (&lt; 10s) it seems to work fine most of the time.</p>
