new Audio() not Implemented in Internet explorer

Question

I am trying to play an array of mp3 sound. I have an audio file in my html and get it using document.CreateElement() in my JavaScript.

When I try to set the src attribute (setAttribute("src", string)) I get an error in IE saying "Not Implemented".

I tried using the new Audio(), I get the same error in IE, "Not Implemented". Both approaches works in Google chrome and Firefox.

Can anyone help?

<audio id="audio1" >Not supported</audio>

audioElm = document.getElementById("audio1");
audioElm.setAttribute("src", aud[count]); 
audioElm.play();

HTML5 Audio not playing in IE (recent versions)?

It could be a compatibility view issue (quirks mode)

• is your site on the compatibility view list in IE?
• or is your page embedded in an iframe?

It could be caused by running IE on a server

• IE server versions don't support audio/video (enhanced protected mode)

It could be caused by running IE on a Windows 8.1 Enterprise version such as "8.1 N".

• The fix for this would be installing the Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 8.1

Also you can go to html5test.com and look in the audio section at the "MP3 support".
