The msAudioDeviceType
property of the HTML <audio> element, is a read/write proprietary attribute, specific to Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge.
msAudioDeviceType
specifies the output device id that the audio will be sent to.
<audio src="sound.mp3" msAudioDeviceType="Communications" />
By default, audio on your system will output to your default speakers and be considered a foreground element, meaning that the audio will play only when the element is active in the app. For real-time communications, you can use the msAudioDeviceType
property with the value Console
, Multimedia
, or Communications
to specify where the current audio should output.
Include a description of the property's value, including data type and what it represents.
