'Linux cPanel server isn't playing MP3 files as MP3, but is streaming it? No length and cant skip to different parts of song

I am hosting a few mp3 files on my wordpress website, and when using a plugin to play those files, i cant seem to skip to other parts of the song.

Upon checking with the developer of the plugin we noticed that even when going to the MP3 url directly, you cant skip the songs, even with the native browser player. It seems it's almost looking at the MP3 as if it is a live stream, rather than a file.

Has anyone else had this issue before?
