The issue is due to an attempt to open a webpage in a new window / tab before the download occurs.

@barijaona, Are you saying its user-error, or a problem on NPR's site?

The feed is https://feeds.npr.org/3/rss.xml
Double click and a new tab opens with the story - I don't change to that quickly.
Once I go there, there is a ... clicking it brings up a pop-up with "Download"
The link on that download is for example
https://ondemand.npr.org/anon.npr-mp3/npr/me/2025/02/20250228_me_former_usaid_head_under_president_george_w._bush_discusses_the_agency_s_dismantling.mp3?size=4901870&d=306329&e=nx-s1-5302555&sc=siteplayer&aw_0_1st.playerid=siteplayer
But clicking the download doesn't do anything.

That loads fine in for example Firefox.
Is there a browser console in Vienna ? I cant see what, if any, error messages are generated.
