    It is unusual that the player isn’t working only on this one post. The default PowerPress player is built on the MediaElement.js player that comes with WordPress. Can you do some testing by trying the audio player shortcode that comes with WordPress, and see if that player works within the post? The code looks like this:

    [audio url="http://example.com/path/to/media.mp3"]
    Replace http://example.com/path/to/media.mp3 with your media file URL.

    Thanks Shawn.

    That helped steer us in the right direction, I think, though not quite to a solution. If I manually add that shortcode with our mp3 URL [audio url="http://traffic.libsyn.com/socialmediamarketing/SocialMediaMarketing-232-17-01-13.mp3"]
    the player does not load. However, if I use the default WordPress “Add Media” feature and choose to embed from URL it works just fine
    [embed]http://traffic.libsyn.com/socialmediamarketing/SocialMediaMarketing-232-17-01-13.mp3[/embed]

    I tried creating an entire new post and found the same results. I’m scratching my head on how that’s possible. Note again, the same media file is linked to on other pages and loads correctly. Thanks again!

    Can you test with the stock twentysixteen theme bundled with WordPress? That will indicate if it is a theme issue or not. What you describe sounds like the theme takes the content directly for the page and displays it rather than using the the_content() function.
