title: Google Chrome: Use --allow-file-access-from-files flag for MacOS
body: <p>I'd like to run a study (local js file) in Google Chrome, but I can't play any sounds. Can anyone help me with this?</p>
  
  <p>I tried disabling the new feature that causes the problem, but when I run the following code in my terminal, nothing happens. A new Chrome window opens and I can run the study, but the sounds still can't be played (I'm using a Macbook as you can see).</p>
  
  <p><code>/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --allow-file-access-from-files</code> </p>
  
  <p>Here are the pages I got my approach from: </p>

  <p>It would be really cool if someone could give me a hint. I'm completely new to all this and have absolutely no clue what to do. Thanks in advance! </p>
