Cannot play sound from https link

Question

I'd like to ask why we cannot play integrated sound on a web page when the sound file (.wav format) is located with https url link. From the same web page, the sound can be played well with Internet Explorer.
Thanks a lot for your support.

Hi,
Here is the javascript code we used for playing sound in background.<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki> <script type="text/javascript">
var DIV_beepSoundContainer = new div("beepSoundContainer","","");
guiOMPage.addElement(DIV_beepSoundContainer);
</script><div id="beepSoundContainer" class="" style="" onmouseover="" onmouseout="" onclick=""><object type="application/x-mplayer2" height="0" width="0"><param name="fileName" value="https://www.telephoniemobiles-standard.test.orange-business.com/console/standard/login/help/Btelm/beep1.wav"><param name="AutoStart" value="true"><param name="PlayCount" value="1"></object></div><script type="text/javascript">
DIV_beepSoundContainer.init();
</script></nowiki></pre>
<br />
Unfortenately, I could not give you the page web & use case where the sound should be played (authentication required). Again, the sound is played well with Internet Explorer.
If I replace the link by http://..., the sound works well.
Do you know any limitation of Mozilla related to the use of https?
Thanks a lot for your help.
