From -Q:
1. ~/.mailcap contains lines:
audio/*; mpv %s;
audio/*; play %s;
2. (require 'mailcap)
   (mailcap-file-default-commands '("lol.mp3"))
   ; => ("mpv")

I'd expect it to return '("mpv" "play" ...)

The function will only return the commands that are actually installed.
Do you have "play" installed?

When did it start checking for things being installed?  I don't see
executable-find or anything there.  FWIW, on another system with 24.5,
the recipe returns ("mpv" "play" "showaudio") and I have none of those
things installed on that system.

No, that wasn't the problem -- it was a bug in the code trying to prefer
entries from ~/.mailcap over other entries.  It would only use the first
entry found.

This is now fixed in Emacs 28.
