No position slider/seek bar is displayed for audio player

Description

The video player includes a position slider/seek bar. Audio doesn't.

An example use case for a slider is the user rewinding a little bit to hear a segment that they missed the first time.

Examples of both

A related problem is that when the parameter end=10:00 is added, the audio stops at that position, but the player will continue to play from 10:00. The user can't go back to the beginning to play the same segment again. See

Note that the standard <audio> player in Firefox and Chrome has this feature; the mediawiki player does not.

Perviously the audio player would take up the target size and display a playhead if it could.

Somehow its no longer respecting the width provided. We should fix.

I came to report this again and found this old bug. I accidentally closed my window playing Wikipedia Weekly on the Signpost on my Samsung Tab, and found I can't resume where I was in the steam. :(

BTW. I expect quite a few usages of the audio player inside wikipedia pages will now suddenly be bigger than people expect. Should we do a User-notice for this ?
