Description:
Flame device does not support wav files (but should according to documentation). If you download a wav from browser or email it will not play. It will however play through the browser if played from the website. 
 In 3.0, the email app recognizes the wav file and offers the Download icon, but gives the error message after DL is complete. In prior versions the email app does not even offer the Download icon for wav files.

Repro Steps:
1) Update a Flame to 20150305010212
2) Email a Wav file to yourself
3) Launch Email app and download it
4) Click on notification once download is complete

Actual:
"Unable to open" error message is encountered

Expected:
Music app will open and play the wav file

NI on component owner for nomination decision and assignment.

Comment 4

[No-Jun Park [:njpark]]

ni?ing hema for more info.  Hema, do we actually support wav file playback on the music app for 2.2 and before? I thought we didn't. If we are supporting it for 3.0? then we can nominate it for 3.0.

Comment 5

[Hema Koka [:hema]]

WAV is not supported in the music app because it was not considered a priority from product front (it is supported in gecko and I think it is enabled on the device storage side too). See bug and dependencies here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=873389

[Update]
Depends on bug 873389, refer to commend 1 and 3.

[Blocking Requested - why for this release]:

The bug depends on bug 873389.

Nominate to blocking v3.0, EPM will decide status of ticket.

Comment 8

[Ken Chang[:kenkai]]

We introduce a new Audio channel architecture in 2.5. It's worth testing this bug again.

Comment 9

[Ken Chang[:kenkai]]

According to comment 5, this is a feature.
