I don't think it can. as it downloads the file first I think then it will dart playing. Dropbox is not designed to be a thing for playing therefore the synch play positions across all devices is not an option. You can how ever contact them at b...@getdropbox.com and suggest they maybe implement this.

I know apps like Audible let you do this, but I didn't know if Dropbox would do it as well.
