It works for me in elinks. I get a dialog box asking what program I want 
to use to open a file. You'll need MPlayer or something else that can 
handle real audio streams.
I've been hearing that elinks Javascript support isn't very good, but 
it's been working quite well here for quite a while now. I follow cvs 
though, and maybe the stable 0.10 releases aren't getting the new 
JavaScript stuff. I have procmail trash the commit messages  for the 
stable branch so I don't know what's been going into 0.10.x.
It seems strange to say that development code works better than stable 
releases but for now as far as JavaScript goes that seems to be the 
case.


If you feel like it, try checking out cvs head. The debian packaging 
files are all there too so it's almost as easy to build. You'll need 
automake and autoconf though. If 0.10 is as bad is it sounds you'll find 
a huge improvement I think.
Hope this helps.
