Thanks for getting back to me!

Checking the option doesn’t appear to have solved the issue.

There may be a plug-in that is automatically adding <p></p> to the URL when you paste it into the post editor, which will cause WordPress to display the URL as text instead of the video.

I use the TinyMCE Advanced plug-in to format my text, and it was automatically adding <p></p> to the URL.
To disable this, go to:
Settings>TinyMCE Advanced

At the bottom of the page is an Advanced Settings section. Make sure “Stop removing the <p> and
tags when saving and show them in the HTML editor” is NOT selected.

You can find out if WordPress is adding <p></p> by pasting your URL into the post editor and toggle between Visual and HTML views.

@mslocumm, you are a lifesaver! Thank you!

I am having the same issue too. Clicking the Add Audio button doesn’t display the shortcode in the Link URL entry field. I’m a little worried this won’t be fixed since the plug-in hasn’t been updated since January 2010.
Manually entering the shortcode isn’t really an option for my clients.
Can anyone recommend a replacement plug-in?

Well, I cleaned up the code on that page, but it still displays incorrectly in IE.
Interestingly, I placed the get sidebar call between the get header call and the div containing the post content, and the layout displays correctly. Of course, this makes some of the widgets not function correctly…

Thanks! I was just reading the same link you posted and was just trying to figure out if I should use HTML 5 as the doctype for validation.
