It's been a while since I've done this one but I just redid the challenge and it worked fine as per the instructions I followed so I think the issue you may be having is in using this structure

<audio>
<source></source>
</audio>

Instead of just

<audio stuff-in-here>

The challenge asks you to use the self closing audio tag and then instructs you to add attributes within that tag. You're ... you know, not doing that lol. Why don't you give it a shot with the self closer and see what ya get!

Give a shout back if that doesn't clear things up for ya.

Cheers,
