Sometimes when watching youtube the video will be paused, once I unpause it it immediately pauses it again, I dont know when and why this happens but it happens. Only extensions are honey, ecosia search and stylus

I've had occasional video pausing on Windows due to the integration with the keyboard media controls: sound from another source pauses the video and it doesn't restart with the other sound ends. I don't know whether that is a possible issue on Linux, but you can take that out of the equation as follows:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste mediak and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the media.hardwaremediakeys.enabled preference to switch the value from true to false

Any difference?
