Discussion topic:brave won't play in background after closing app

I tried relaunching app,uninstalling and reinstalling,disable battery optimizer,cleaned memory and everything you can think of

The only thing that works is when all cookies are blocked


Description of the issue:
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open youtube website from brave browser app

  2. Switch tabs/get out of app/lock screen

Expected result:background playback stops working (doesn’t pause but closes completely)

Brave Version( check About Brave):1.86.142

device:samsung galaxy A30s

Os:android
