Audio level resets to zero

I have the audio player level set to "70" in settings. I have one mp3 file in the mp3/ folder. It plays fine once. When you relaunch the site there is no audio unless the level is manually brought back up in the player controls on-screen. Why does the level keep setting back to zero?

Thanks.

It remembers your last state of play. If the audio was stopped last time you closed the gallery, it will not auto-start next tim you visit the gallery. If the audio was playing last time you closed the gallery, next time you open the gallery, it will play. This is stored in cookies on the client that visits your gallery.

Thanks. I was using a short 1 minute piece of music that would be stopped by the time someone left the gallery. Looks like I need to use a longer piece.

The audioplayer loops by default. You disabled the looping?

Yes, I figured out that zero repeats is actually looping mode. I'm going to switch to using a slideshow as my start page. I'm writing new music that changes slightly in chords, mood, and timbre every 6 seconds and will "appear" to be synchronized with the slide change/transitions. It should be fun.
