audio IE9 issue

I've noticed the audio element no longer works in IE9 in Windows Vista.



The HTML code within brackets (shown without the brackets):

audio controls
source src="http://candor.8m.com/mp3/KellyClarkson-Irvine-StudioVersion.mp3"
Your browser does not support the audio element if the player does not display here.
/audio

some pages that didn't fix this, but provide some information:
blogs.msdn.com
bloggerwidgetgenerators.com
ehow.com
msdn.microsoft.com

The code does work in Chrome and Firefox.
