Description of the issue:
This issue is mentioned in the closed topic Brave keeps playing sound even while video is closed and still not solved! Brave team, when will this be fixed?
When closing a video playing on a tab, the sound keeps playing. This happens in normal mode and in private mode. Only force closing Brave will stop playing the sound. This is really really annoying. I have all background playing settings disabled, in the OS as well as in the Brave settings. Background running on iOS/iPadOS is disabled, but still this very annoying issue persists.
**Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): It is very hard to force, sometimes it double plays and sometimes it doesn’t.
-
Open YouTube. 2. Open a video on a new tab. 3. Close the tab.
-
Sometimes Brave will keep playing the audio even while the tab is closed.
Most of the times it happens is like this:
-
Open YouTube.
-
Long press on a video to show the popup menu.
-
Select to open it in another tab.
-
One of the following behaviors occurs:
-
The video plays normal.
-
The video plays and the same audio track of the video plays as well but lagging like a half of a second.
-
The audio is of the video is playing at the moment of selecting to open it on a new tab. When the new tab is opened, the same audio track of the video is playing, only one is lagging a half of a second.
-
-
Close the tab and one stream of audio of the video is still playing even while the tab is closed.
NOTE: The preview playing videos option is disabled in my YouTube account.
To stop the audio from playing can only be done by force closing Brave.**
Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):
Cannot make screenshot of audio streams.
Expected result:
Playing only a single audio stream of the video that is shown.
Stop playing persist audio of the video.
Reproduces how often:
Very very often, but not on command. It is very difficult to reproduce. But it happens very often.
