No Audio will play until input (AudioSourceStart)

    I am using Project Tiny preview 0.15.3. I have tried having both a AudioSource and a AudioSourceStart component in my boot scene and also loading an AudioSource and adding the AudioSourceStart components through script. Neither will begin playing in Chrome/Safari until I press a key, or touch/mouse input on the browser window. After that everything functions as you'd expect (audio can be played/stopped).
    This behavior also occurs in the provided Unity samples.
    Does anyone know of a workaround for this? Is it intentional? I would like background music to being as soon as the project is launched.

    Thanks for any assistance

    Sadly, this behavior is mandated by the browsers themselves.
