Workaround for Safari 11 Update

Question

I recently upgraded my browser to Safari 11, as it turns out, it comes with a new feature...it automatically blocks media with audio that plays automatically. I have some elearning demos on my website, at www.rtrdigital.com/learning, and they no longer play audio when accessed from Safari 11. The settings can be changed for individual sites, but that is going to be a pain to ask every user on my site to enable autoplay just for a demo... Does anyone have a workaround yet?

I am still waiting for a solution myself. Captivate said they are working on a fix but I am afraid it is going to take longer than my clients' patience is.

If I turn off Auto-Play in Captivate, hitting the Play icon will not start audio but play the course without the audio. You'd assume that would be permission enough from the browser but it looks like it is not accepting the action.

Captivate 2017 10.0.0.192
Safari 11.0.2
Mac OSX 10.11.6
