It is even more weird this add-on provides just a search engine! It's not as if the add-on is related to a media player, or something you could expect it might need to touch audio. I tried it on a plasma desktop and I can replicate the problem. However, I noticed if I go into Configure Audio Devices and select 'Analogue Stereo' and then 'Analogue Stereo Duplex' back & forth, the audio starts playing again. This is with a hard wired audio, no bluetooth. Any idea what the difference is between the various StartPage add-ons? Is StartPage to be trusted, anymore than all the rest mass surveillance corporates?
