Struggled with this for hours - Can't seem to get the audio file to play once I click an HTML element.
var bb = document.querySelector(".soundfile");
function playAudio() {
bb.play();
}
document.querySelector(".btn-hold").addEventListener("click", playAudio);<audio class="soundfile">
<sound src="sound.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>
<button class="btn-new"><i class="ion-ios-plus-outline"></i>New game</button>
<button class="btn-roll"><i class="ion-ios-loop"></i>Roll dice</button>
<button class="btn-hold"><i class="ion-ios-download-outline"></i>Hold</button>this is different to other questions

I'm a little confused by your code. If you're asking about playing a sound file from a click, why are you showing buttons labeled "new game", "roll dice" and "hold"? Can you create a plain Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example instead?

@Mike'Pomax'Kamermans I imagine OP wants to play a sound when you click the "Hold" button. There's enough information here to understand the problem (which YongQuan has solved above)

As do I, and the Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example request is not just for us, but also for James himself: 99.9% of the time simply the exercise of creating that minimal example makes you discover the actual problem all on your own, even if you already had your SO question written up.

It should be <source>, not <sound>.
<audio class="soundfile">
<source src="sound.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>
It should be working after you change to the correct element.
If it's still not working, then there might be a problem in some other part of your code and we have not enough information to help you diagnose that.
