### Why is this important?
Audio that plays automatically when landing on the page makes it difficult for users to simultaneously hear the speech output from a screen reader.
Automatically playing content can harm the user experience for some users.
<!-- This is where the code snippet is injected -->
<div id="locSnippet"></div>
### What to do
* If possible, do not play audio automatically when landing on the page
* **Or**, play audio that automatically turns off after three seconds
* **Or**, provide controls at the top of the web page that can turn off or pause the audio and control its volume
