The previous version of firefox would show which tab was making noise with a little megaphone symbol. But the June 2021 update changed that function so the symbol only appears when you hover the pointer over the tab. Not very convenient or useful. I was wondering if there was a setting or add on that would restore the previous noisy tab identification function.

I see now that it says "PLA" in little letters under the tab title which indicates that that tab is playing. So I can see which tab is noisy. Not as good as it was before, but at least the function is still there.
