Update:
To add to this, it's now come to my attention that being able to play in Chrome and Firefox depends on the individual track.
Is there a reason why some songs won't play but others will?
For instance, Drake's "Hotline Bling" does work cross browser, but Little Simz's "Hello, Hi" does not.

To add to this, as I know the above link is technically for the old API documentation. Here is my below code, working on Safari, but not Chrome or Firefox.
I can see the automatic audio object is loading at the bottom of the screen, but it's not the same assetURL as the Safari browser version.
document.addEventListener('musickitloaded', function() {
MusicKit.configure({
developerToken: 'MyDeveloperToken',
app: {
name: 'Apple Music App',
build: '1.0.0'
}
});
});
function playASong() {
var music = MusicKit.getInstance();
music.authorize().then(function() {
var url = 'https://music.apple.com/gb/album/hotline-bling/1440841363?i=1440841730';
music.setQueue({ url: url }).then(function(queue) {
music.player.prepareToPlay(queue.nextPlayableItem).then(function() {
music.player.play();
});
});
});
}
const playbtn = document.querySelector(".play-button");
playbtn.addEventListener("click", function () {
playASong();
});
