With Firefox 77.0.1 (Mac). I'm not able to hear audio-messages send to me with WhatsApp (web-application).
It's an Oog-vorbis-file afaict. I remember similar audio-problems some years ago: YouTube or Vimeo would play, but e.g. Spotify wouldn't.
Anything I can do to solve this?

Have a sample file that doesn't work for you that you can post somewhere?

This does play in Chrome, but not in Firefox, even in safe mode.

Plays on my end, Windows, XP & SeaMonkey, Win10 & FF Quantum.
Download file
Drag in browser
(very clear) audio playback
Seemingly should be working on Mac too, HTML5 audio and video in Firefox.
(And yes, it is ogg (opus).)

Here it does not play: not straight from the link I posted, nor drag and drop on Firefox. What's getting in the way here?

Just back to correct my own mistake: It was due to the fact that mono audio (meaning 1 channel) plays over my center-speakers in my 5.1 surround studio. And most of the time, that system is turned off (as in: I won't do surround today
