      In order to get Moodle to recognize an AAC file:

      Upload it using either Add Resource > File to add the file. This upload will not be blocked; Moodle file picker can accept the acc file extension. Keep the default treatment for the link, "Automatic". Note: do not use "force download". This will not reveal the link you need in the next steps.
      Save the file resource and return to course page.
      Click on the new link to the file on the course home page. It will open a new window.
      Grab the URL for the permanent path to the file. Permanent links have "pluginfile.php" in the path name. They DO NOT have "draftfile.php" in the path.
      Delete any text in the file path that comes after the file extension ".aac". The path must end in those three letters in order to be picked up by the Moodle filter.

      In the site administration area for Plugins > Filters > Multimedia
      plugins, there is this text regarding audio filtering:

      HTML 5 audio - Audio files with extension *.ogg, *.acc and others. ...

      ACC is not accepted even tho it's listed.
