    You may have to initialize jPlayer on user action in Mobile Safari.

    The first time a media element is played must be initiated by a user gester. ie., The user must click the play button. This affects the operation of a jPlayer(“play”) in the ready event handler. The browser will ignore the command. jPlayer will simply wait until the user presses the play button.
    Once the first gesture has been received, JavaScript code is then allowed to do whatever you want with the media element. Note that a jPlayer media player instance uses a audio and a video element. Each require their own gesture.

    As a hack, you could possibly add a handler for a touch event on an outer container element (or body) and initialize any jPlayer instances that you want.
