  The video is a background on the Cover Block, and it won’t play audio.

  If you want to show a video with audio, please consider using Video Block https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/video-block.

  Thanks vajrasar,

  But using a Video Block will not be acting like a Cover Block. Isn’t it so?

  Yes, Cover and Video blocks have different usage, but if you want to play the video in full-width with the audio, Video block can do the task.
