Audio do not play until player touches the screen. Then it plays all together!

Hey community! Hope you all are doing well.

I'm in a project where the game runs itself with not so much input from the user, sometimes there's no input from them at all.

It runs on Browsers. The catch is, when the user starts the game, if he doesn't click or touch the game, it doesn't play the audios. And when the player touches it, all the audios that had to have been played plays at the same time in one shot! And after that, it goes all well.

Is there any way to make the game start focused when we open the link? Not requiring the player to click or touch the screen in order to do that?

Thanks a lot for anyone that can help!

No, that's a privacy/security feature.

Just add a play button with sound to the first layout.

Even the problem with the audios playing all at once? Thanks for the answer.

That would be a timing issue.

I had the same problem, turned out to be a Firefox issue. Everything worked fine in Edge.

All modern browsers restrict autoplay to prevent web pages annoying users. It's documented in the Audio manual entry.
