With firefox 72.0.2, down arrow takes me to a clickable that
sends me off somewhere else on the page but does not play the
song. A second and third down arrow show me the previous and next
track buttons, neither of which can be clicked with firefox and
nvda. Maybe I'll try it with Narrator when I have a spare moment.

technical knowledge about the browser to explain the cause,
far beyond the knowledge of list members. Having said that, I
have yet to look at the site with the latest version of
Firefox. I'll look on my Windows 7 machine later today. But
out of curiosity, I looked at it with a quite old version of
Firefox. I found that there is a play/pause button and that,
if I down arrow once, there is another button. Pressing the
space bar on this button starts play. So go to the play pause
button and down arrow once or twice. Do you see the second
button?

Subject: Re: [nvda] NVDA and Bandcamp.
Which Edge, the one that comes with Windows or the new chrome
version? I
have the one that comes with Windows. I could install Chrome I
guess, or
use Edge. But considering that Firefox works with everything else,
I
don't see why I should have to install/use another browser just
for this
one site.
I mean, if that's what I have to do, I will. I'm just saying, I'd
like
to know why it doesn't work before I do that, because I can't see
any
reason why it shouldn't work. It worked before after all. Thanks
for
checking, I'm happy that there's a solution. It just bothers me to
throw
up my hands and go, that thing doesn't work, better use something
else,
when I can't see why the thing doesn't work. If for instance Edge
and
Chrome supported audio playback and Firefox didn't for some
reason, OK,
there you go, you have to use another browser. I'm off to check
Edge,
seriously, thanks! Huh! I guess it's the new chrome version of
Edge,
because I couldn't get it to work with the Edge in 1909 at all. So
yeah.
I'd really like to avoid installing a totally new browser for one
single
site, if I can help it.
