Bug: Video notification persists after tab playing video closed

When there is a Firefox tab open playing sound/video, a notification appears for it (with a play/pause button). Fine feature. Bug: the notification persists after the tab playing sound or video is closed. The only way to remove the notification is to stop the app. (The workaround is to disable Firefox sound and video notifications entirely, but obviously that is not a fix.)

Hi

Thank you for raising this.

Once the sound or video has finished or has been stopped, you should be able to swipe down from the top of the screen and swipe across to close that notification.

I hope this helps.
