That does play here, with sound, in Firefox on Debian Trixie (on AMD64, 
not a Pi), and also on a Pi500+ running RaspiOS Trixie (no speakers, so 
I can only say the video works).

Both machines have full desktop GUIs and VLC installed, I don't know 
whether that makes any difference. The AMD machine is running Debian 
Mate and the Pi a standard PiOS.

Oh ... probably shouldn't make any difference but I also have cheese 
installed on both, because I was playing with webcams. I suppose cheese 
may have brought in some extra driver support ...??
