audio file download using javascript

Question

I'm trying to download multiple files from s3 in queue. But the problem occurring is the audio files are getting streamed in browser player in-spite of getting downloaded.

Note: when i'm providing local path of audios then the download function is working exactly as intended ,in all browsers but with s3 path the audio gets streamed/played in browser.

Here is what I have tried -

sending array of .mp3 paths -

$.each(jsonarray, function (key, value) {
       download_files([{download: value}]);
});

download function-

function download_files(files) {
    function download_next(i) {
        if (i >= files.length) {
            return;
        }
        var a = document.createElement('a');
        a.href = files[i].download;
        a.target = '_parent';
        var nameArray = a.href.split('/');
        var filename = nameArray[nameArray.length-1].replace(/%20/g, " ");
        if ('download' in a) {
            a.download = filename;
        }
        (document.body || document.documentElement).appendChild(a);
        if (a.click) {
            a.click(); 
        } else {
            $(a).click();
        }
        a.parentNode.removeChild(a);
        setTimeout(function () {
            download_next(i + 1);
        }, 500);
    }
    download_next(0);
}

Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks
