It is my understanding that the videos and sound files need to live somewhere other than the actual website. You can add them to a vimeo or YouTUbe account and add the code to your site. They should play on your site then, hope that helps.
To add an MP3 to your Homestead website, upload the file to your File Manager, then use an HTML component to embed an <audio> player. Alternatively, upload the audio to a platform like SoundCloud and embed it using the URL.
One.com +3
Method 1: Using HTML5 Audio Player (Recommended)
Upload the MP3: Open your Sitebuilder, go to your File Manager, and upload your audio file.
Add HTML Component: Click Elements > Code (or HTML) and drag it to your page.
Embed Code: Paste the following code, replacing "your-audio-file.mp3" with the exact file name you uploaded:
html
<audio controls>
<source src="your-audio-file.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>
In Homestead, select the Video element and paste the SoundCloud link.
Homestead Technologies +1
Note: In the new WebsiteBuilder program, audio is primarily supported via third-party embedding like SoundCloud rather than a direct native file player component, notes Homestead Community users
I couldn't get that html code to work in WebsiteBuilder program. I have all the music currently available through SoundCloud but users are complaining about that. I'd rather have the music available on my site as it is my original music.
Is there a way to switch to SiteBuilder once I've already created a site in WebsiteBuilder? I know I can have the music there as I have another website built with SiteBuilder.

The only option we currently have for MP3 is through SoundCloud.
