Describe the bug
Hi,

I'm facing an issue. When I'm trying to play a song on iOS, nothing happens. On my console, here's the error prompted :

I tested to use x_sendfile to solve this issue but It was not the solution in my case. The problem happens in Safari, Chrome and Firefox, but not on Desktop. I'm not using the mobile app, just simply trying to use Koel via browser.
Could you help me with this please ? Thanks you !

To reproduce
Simply trying to play a song on a iOS device.

Expected behavior
Songs playing on a iOS device.

Environment

OS: iOS 17
Firefox, Chrome, Safari
PHP 8.2.7

This likely is related to mobile Safari's (including Chrome and Firefox, as they're just Safari on iOS) strict policy when it comes to the AudioContext. At this moment there's very little I can do about this, as it pops up once in a while with a new version of Safari, and it's very inconsistent (works with some and doesn't with others).

May I suggest you look at the mobile app instead? If you can't / don't want to build it, you can always buy it from the AppStore. I know it's a paid product in that case, but it doesn't have this annoying issue (as well as some others as with mobile PWA) and it's a way to further support the project.
