tried refactoring the HTML5 <audio> tag from:

        <audio id="alarmSound">
            <!-- No Browser support for Edge / IE -->
            <source src="assets/audio/07070161.wav" type="audio/mpeg">
            <!-- Edge / IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari & Opera Browser support -->
            <source src="assets/audio/07070161.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
            Your browser does not support the audio element.
        </audio>

to:

        <audio id="alarmSound" src="assets/audio/07070161.mp3"></audio>

without any success.
