No media player or sound, just black box for audio resource

I'm just getting started with Moodle and this is the first time I'm trying to add audio. I did it through the "Moodle Media" button on the HTML editor. What I get on the output, though, is just a black rectangle one text-line high that does nothing.

The code generated by the editor is

<a href="http://www.sim-nigeria.org/moodle/draftfile.php/13/user/draft/830054202/english_tone_garbled.mp3">english_tone_garbled.mp3</a>

and in the page as displayed there is

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
M.util.init_mp3flowplayerplugin("filter_mp3_13074591402",
"http:\/\/www.sim-nigeria.org\/moodle\/filter\/mediaplugin\/mp3player.swf",
"http:\/\/www.sim-nigeria.org\/moodle\/filter\/mediaplugin\/flowplayer.audio.swf",
"http:\/\/www.sim-nigeria.org\/moodle\/pluginfile.php\/31\/mod_lesson\/page_contents\/11\/suspect_audio.mp3",
{"bgColour":"000000","btnColour":"ffffff","btnBorderColour":"cccccc","iconColour":"000000","iconOverColour":"00cc00",
"trackColour":"cccccc","handleColour":"ffffff","loaderColour":"ffffff","waitForPlay":"yes"});

//]]>
</script>

The same thing happens in different browsers. Flash and scripting are not blocked. What may be wrong?

Thanks
