Where ICT is a web page, it shall satisfy WCAG 2.0 Success Criterion 1.4.2 Audio Control.

If any audio on a Web page plays automatically for more than 3 seconds, either a mechanism is available to pause or stop the audio, or a mechanism is available to control audio volume independently from the overall system volume level.
