Answer 1

as far as I know, ogg format is not supported in Safari. See https://caniuse.com/#search=ogg

You could use an alternate format for your source audio, eg mp3 or wav.

<audio controls autoplay>
  <source src="horse.ogg" type="audio/ogg" />
  <source src="horse.mp3" type="audio/mpeg" />
</audio>
