Legacy GM Sound not playing in HTML 5

[Cmi]

I want to play sound in HTML 5 target.

Here is my code, am not sure what is wrong with it. It works in windows just not in HTML 5.
Create Event:
execute code:

// Music on = mon
global.mon = 1;
// set the image speed to 0
image_speed = 0;
// Play the sound
audio_play_sound(snd_lvl_1,0,1)

Mouse Event for Left Pressed:
execute code:

// If on and clicked, pause
if global.mon = 1 {
audio_pause_sound(snd_lvl_1)
image_index = 1;
}
// If off and clicked, start playing
if global.mon = 0 {
audio_resume_sound(snd_lvl_1)
image_index = 0;
}

global.mon = !global.mon // toggle between on and off

mp3, wav, ogg?

Resource IDs are not strings, stop treating them like one.

Get rid of the quotes around snd_lvl_1 in the Create event.

Have you tried multiple browsers? I'm getting no sound in Internet Explorer with wav sound effects. The sound works fine in Chrome, but that's having a whole other set of problems.

I tried Chrome when the attributes were compressed - streamed that didn't work. I just tried Uncompressed and that one worked. Firefox didn't work. How do I make it work on all browsers?

make sure you clear the cache after you switch export modules.

would that be in the micro web server? I am new to GM

Click on the green brush beside the play/debug buttons

I did that, the sound only plays in chrome.

 

[seanm]

what could be happening is certain audio options (compressed, not compressed, w.e) don't load the audio right away.

The sounds will probably play if you just leave your game open for a minute or two, but obviously thats not something you'd want to do.

Just change the compression options until your sounds play.

All my sounds work on chrome, ff, and ie, using the first checkbox, Uncompressed Not Streamed

 

[Cmi]

So far this is what I have:
Chrome works when attributes is Uncompressed - Not streamed
Firefox & Chrome both work when attributes is Compressed - Not streamed

You've cleared the cache, and you are using the most up to date versions of the browsers?

Also check what your webGl settings are in the global settings menu. I just leave mine on auto and everything works fine.

you mean in my global game settings right?

 

[seanm]

Yeah, global game settings, html5, graphics. Make sure auto detect is on.

I read somewhere that it is good to have WebGL set to required because it makes your game run the way it is supposed to run.

 

[seanm]

it also means audio won't always work

Oh okay, I turned it on. But so far everything is going pretty good. You won't happen to know a good tutorial on loading screens. ( I know it's off topic :/ sorry)

 

[seanm]

depends on what you mean by loading screen.

 

[Cmi]

like the splash screen, where the Gamemaker screen shows.

Turns out my sound effects are ogg in the HTML5 export (Uncompressed, Not Streamed). I already had webGL set to auto detect and it doesn't seem to make a difference to the sound in Internet Explorer. Turns out that's the cause of some of the graphics problems I'm seeing though!

Would you recommend I make all my sounds ogg?

 

[DifferentName]

No. I still don't have sound in Internet Explorer. Still trying to figure out what's happening there.

Yeah Internet explorer is not working for me either.

Does a sound play if you use the function

sound_play()
