Firefox Android won't play audio files
My firefox android app won't play audio files, what seems to be .mp3 format (in-website podcasts, etc.). I've tried fiddling with my settings and site permissions but have had no luck. Here's an example of the kind of thing that just won't play in the app: https://www.talkinfrench.com/french-school-system-part-6-the-future-le-futur/
I've run these file types on the google chrome app and everything works fine so it's definitely a firefox program and not to do with my phone.
I've allowed atuoplay of audio in my settings and tried it out with enhanced tracking protection on and off, but no luck either time.
If anyone knows what the problem could be I'd really appreciate the help, thanks.

To add: the app is the latest version and my phone runs on android 6.0 (old, I know) >autoplay< for the typo above

Hi
I have been able to play the recording on the website. Do you have any add-ons installed in Firefox for Android?

Hi,
Yes I have a few add ons but when I disable all of them the audio still doesn't play. Thanks for your reply

Which add-ons do you have installed?
What level of enhanced tracking protection do you have set?

I have ublock origin, https everywhere, decentraleyes, dark reader, and leechblock installed. Enhanced tracking protection is set to standard right now, but I have tried to play the audio with enhanced tracking turned off with no success
I am guessing the audio in the media player on the page is not muted?
Does audio play from other web pages (such as YouTube)?
Are you able to attach a screenshot of the screen when you play the audio?
