HTML embed autoplay false but still plays automatically

Question

On the front page of this website  there is a sticky post titled  National Radio Advertising Campaign ForACURE  which contains the following HTML    lt embed type  audio x-wav  src  http   www foracure org au wp-content uploads FOR-A-CURE-RADIO-Daniel-45sec mp3  autoplay  false  height  20  width  200  autostart  false  gt    However  when I load this website in Chrome v31 0 1650 57 m  the audio plays automatically  even though both autoplay and autostart are set to false   Is there a better cross browser method of embedding this audio

None of the video settings posted above worked in modern browsers I tested  like Firefox  using the embed or object elements in HTML5  For video or audio elements they did stop autoplay  For embed and object they did not  I tested this using the embed and object elements using several different media types as well as HTML attributes  like autostart and autoplay   These videos always played regardless of any combination of settings in several browsers  Again  this was not an issue using the newer HTML5 video or audio elements  just when using embed and object  It turns out the new browser settings for video  quot autoplay quot  have changed  Firefox will now ignore the autoplay attributes on these tags and play videos anyway unless you explicitly set to  quot block audio and video quot  autoplay in your browser settings  To do this in Firefox I have posted the settings below   Open up your Firefox Browser  click the menu button  and select  quot Options quot  Select the  quot Privacy  amp  Security quot  panel and scroll down to the  quot Permissions quot  section Find  quot Autoplay quot  and click the  quot Settings quot  button  In the dropdown change it to block audio and video  The default is just audio   Your videos will NOT autoplay now when displaying videos in web pages using object or embed elements

Chrome doesn t seem to understand true and false   Use autostart  1  and autostart  0  instead     Source   Google Groups  https   productforums google com forum   topic chrome LkA8FoBoleU
