This is normal behaviour. On mobile devices playback must be initiated by user interaction. Take a look here for more details -> link

So what do i have to do? – sami Dec 04 '14 at 16:25
I do not think that there will be one "hack" to rule all Android versions. I guess the best way will be to encourage user to start playing video by touching play button. – Damian Krawczyk Dec 04 '14 at 17:42
