Loading multiple audio files did not work as expected

On Firefox, Desktop Chrome, Safari browsers, this snippet works fine:

snd1 = new Audio("sound1.mp3");
snd1.play();

snd2 = new Audio("sound2.mp3");
snd2.play();

But on the Chromecast, snd2 will not play. After some experimenting, it seemed Chromecast would not allow to load more than one audio file.

Is this behavior by design?

Solution

  • You cannot use more than one audio unless you use Web Audio APIs, See also this post.
