iOS seems to mute the web audio apis when the phone is in silent mode (the switch on the side of the phone). If you toggle it on, then this site (and many others) play sound.
I have no idea why it works this way and it’s frequently annoying.
Why wouldn't it work that way? Whether it's a hardware toggle like on iPhone or a software one like in Android, I want silent to mean silent. Not "silent but if a web page decides to play sound it can".

How old of an iPhone does one need to have that switch? My 6S+ has one, but a 15 doesn’t.
