This is a known, longstanding bug in QuickTime Player. It cannot play MP3
RTP streams. (It can play MP3 *files*, or MPEG layer I or II audio RTP
streams, but not MPEG layer III (i.e., MP3) RTP streams.)
Apple has known about this bug for a long time, but - for some odd reason -
does not consider it a high priority bug.
Instead of QuickTime Player, I suggest using VLC.
