Firefox and m3u8 streams?

This is not strictly a txp question, but maybe one of you knowledgeable bunch has encountered this before me.

I have a project in the making which has a section with a podcast episode and various sections of interviews with people recounting their memories. I have the audio files on mux as a streaming server and have used the media-chrome web component to make a styleable iframe-less, cookie-less player. I really like the combination of mux and player and it all works just perfectly … except for in Firefox (Windows and Mac), which just stubbornly does nothing.

The console says:

HTTP-Content-Type "application/vnd.apple.mpegurl" wird nicht unterstützt. Laden der Medienressource https://stream.mux.com/……………… fehlgeschlagen.
…
Medien können nicht wiedergegeben werden. Keine Decoder für angefragte Formate: application/vnd.apple.mpegurl

(Translation content type … unsupported. Error loading media resource … Media could not be played. No decoder available for the requested format. …)

I thought it might be my server needing a special mime-type but it’s the same with my local webserver. I don’t think it makes any difference because the streaming server transcodes, but I’ve tried with both mp3 and m4a as the original file. Is there a trick to this? The weird thing is, when I play the asset from within the mux dashboard on firefox, it does play.
