html5

Hello all,

I have a small WordPress site. I do a lot of audio work and I'm trying to post HTML5 audio clips in blog entries on WordPress. For some reason it isn't working. It might have something to do with the style I'm using on my WordPress site but I haven't been able to nail it down. I know my audio tags are valid, as they work elsewhere.

Here's an example audio tag:

<audio src="http://files.dannystewart.com/dom2008.mp3"></audio>

And here's a page demonstrating it not working:

I'm quite sure this is something very simple that I've just missed, but any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks!
