I'm working on a project at the moment where I am fetching audio from a server and playing it back via a webapp in browser.

IOS is not playing nice. Safari (Iphone 13 IOS.16) reports null is not an object (evaluating 'this._audioDomHandler.DecodeAudioData') regardless of if the file is .webm or .mp3.

Chrome on IOS also will not play. Works fine on all other devices.

Safari on MacOS Big Sur has same issue if it is .mp3 but works if it is .webm

Anyone faced similar issues before?

Adding to the issue. I made a simple project that loads an audio file from URL and plays it as "Music" i.e streamed. Safari on macOS does not allow the file to be streamed regardless of file type, but must first load the file completely as if it were played via the "sounds" folder.

Ashley Is this a known limitation/issue I am unaware of?
