Why aren't sounds playing from my demos on my thinkpad?

2024-07-01 09:06: Glicol works, but my project does not #troubleshoot-webaudio-thinkpad
This has been a repeating theme: my audio code doesn't work everywhere, but Glicol does tend to work everywhere. Why?
2024-07-01 09:07: Glancing at glicol JS audoi code #troubleshoot-webaudio-thinkpad
Found an interesting line:
window.AudioContext = window.AudioContext || window.webkitAudiotContext
2024-07-01 09:17: Sound is broken in glicol now #troubleshoot-webaudio-thinkpad
More importantly: sounds suddenly worked for my vocal demo?
2024-07-01 09:27: Not sure why but I guess it's all working now #troubleshoot-webaudio-thinkpad
Both my vocal chords and glicol demo work.
I did do some cache clearing in the dev tools, so that could be partially to blame for why it's suddenly deciding to work.

Unrelated, but that webkit line may be how to get sound working on some iphone devices.
I've made a new task for this vocal-chords-older-iphone.
Sounds do work on youtube, so I am getting browser sound. No clues in console. Locally hosted versions do not work either.
