Audio starting automatically for each module

[KaitlynRamos]

Hi! I am creating an onboarding course for faculty members and I would like to add audio to each page in the modules. I know how to add the audio but I would like to have the audio automatically play when the faculty enter into a page. Rather then the faculty has to start the audio themselves when they enter the page. 

Can canvas do this?

Someone else asked this a while ago, here's a link to the response they got, might help.

Hi @KaitlynRamos,

Autoplay is not currently supported via HTML in the New RCE. You can find a list of the allowed attributes here - https://tr-learncanvas.s3.amazonaws.com/docs/Canvas_HTML_Editor_Allowlist.pdf

You may find some useful information in this post, though in my testing I was not able to accomplish the desired outcome, most likely due to the information in the link above.
