What sort of player are you using ?

At at guess if you are using a older SB player.  If it is an older
player which does not natively support AAC, the file type is MP4 and the
standard LMS transcoding rule for mp4 does not support streamed files. 
The usual fix is to use ffmpeg and a set of custom rules.  The exact
steps will depend on the OS of your LMS system.

You can check if this is the problem by enabling logging player.source
to INFO and try to play the podcast.
