  Hello wordpress comunity,
  I have a quick question.

  Is it possible to add audio that plays as soon as a webpage starts? My friend, whos website is devinsplace.wordpress.com, is wanting to add a player to the main page that will play as soon as people go to his website. Please let me know.

  Thanks,

  The WordPress player does not provide autoplay music.

  You can try an alternative player: http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/12/05/alternative-audio-players/

  Please note: autoplay is a major irritant for some people (myself included). Many of us will click out never to return again if we experience someone else’s musical taste and have not been given an option to listen or not. I never return to such blogs.
