User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.1) Gecko/20090715 Firefox/3.5.1 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

Firfox 3.1.5's <audio> tag doesn't seem to work with very small ogg/vorbis files (14k or less) served from the Cherokee web server. Perplexing!
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download http://dingoskidneys.com/~dholth/audio/00013.ogg (lighttpd)
2.Serve on Cherokee 0.99.10 in its default configuration (I do not have a public Cherokee web server, sorry)
3.Visit with Firefox 3.1.5
4.No playback
Compare with 00014.ogg (30kB, works); 00016.ogg (14k) is also broken.
Expected Results:
I expected to hear something or at least get an error event from the DOM.

Can you download the file with no error?
Have you tried safe mode?

I tried safe mode and I tried asking the IRC channel to play the same file. The small files did not play in either case.
A Firefox 3.6 build fixed the problem for one tester.

I can download the file with no error and the files are identical from both servers according to diff.
The MIME type is either application/ogg or audio/ogg. Clearing the browser cache and restarting the browser after reconfiguring Cherokee to use the other MIME type does not fix the problem.

May be a dupe. I'm not really sure why FF can't play only some of my files. Try this fun demo:
http://dingoskidneys.com/~dholth/clock/
It should play all the digits from 0-10 in succession but it skips most of them. No real talking clock until the <audio> tag works, sorry. All the oggs were encoded at the same time with oggenc *.wav, ogg123 plays them back fine and so on. They are smaller in kb than the other files I was playing with.

This sounds like a duplicate of bug 501708. That one is fixed.
So please confirm and close this one.

Downloaded the Win32 .exe installer from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/ this morning and it's still broken.
For example, it can't play this file.
http://dingoskidneys.com/~dholth/clock/digits/1.ogg
No sound in FF
Plays fine in e.g. VLC, Chrome. (Chrome can't play the whole page, but that may just be a bug in my JavaScript).
Forget what I said about Cherokee. It looks like the web server doesn't make any difference.
