As described in mdn (https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/HTML/Element/audio), the <audio> tag should be writted like <audio src="f.mp3" type="audio/mp3"></audio>.

If you want to display your player, add controls to your tag.

If you want to play the media when the page load, you can add autoplay, but, many web browser not enable autoplay by default as you can read here https://developer.chrome.com/blog/autoplay/
