No music when played through itch.io launcher, but web browser works fine?

Hey, by accident today I noticed several HTML5 games *will not* play music (but will play sound effects) when launched through the itch.io launcher, but will play music when launched from a web browser. For example:

Has anyone seen this before? Do we know the cause? Is it a bug in the framework these games use? What web browser component does itch.io use internally to launch HTML5 games? Thanks!
