When using Firefox to listen to streaming music and podcasts, it cannot pause or resume play of the stream from my Bluetooth headphones. Other browsers can. Is there a setting that I am overlooking, or is Firefox just behind the times?

Currently, Firefox does not fully support dedicated media playback buttons. However, last I checked, they are working on adding it to a future version of Firefox.
