The issue was that the audio file provided in this article (this one) is encoded in a format that is not playable in the native Android media player (ogg + FLAC). The problem in our app was that we were handing the error incorrectly, and entering an infinite loop which caused the app to freeze.
We will now handle playback errors correctly (by showing a message), although this particular audio clip will still be unplayable.
Note for QA: The audio button in this article should be tappable, but is expected to show an error (instead of freezing the app!)
