Andrew Grieve commented on CB-7014:
-----------------------------------

I believe this is a bug in WebView. You can work around it by using FileTransfer to copy your audio file to the filesystem somewhere and then point to that in your <audio> via its file: URL.

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug

> On Android 4.4.3 using the Chromium 33-based webview, HTML5 audio can play audio from a HTTP source, but not local audio in the same package.
> Minimal repro (this zip should be directly uploadable to PhoneGap Build): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/15217362/webviewaudiotest.zip
> I don't know if this is a Chromium bug or PhoneGap bug, so I'm reporting them both. Link to Chromium report: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=387898
> Impact: using PhoneGap to publish HTML5 games means they cannot play any audio bundled in with the game. The Media plugin works for this, but is non-standard and has a different feature set, making porting harder.
