1193085 - [e10s] Tab audio indicator is still shown after navigating from audio-playing page loaded in a remote page to one in a non-remote page

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

STR:
1. Ensure e10s is enabled.
2. Load http://zombo.com/ (which uses Flash) or http://html5zombo.com/
3. Yeah! It works. Notice the tab's audio indicator icon.
4. In the zombo.com tab, load about:config (or any about: page other than about:blank).

RESULT:
about:config loads, but the audio indicator icon is still shown! This only happens when e10s is enabled.

This happens because about:config (or about: for that matter) are loaded as non-remote browsers.

This problem also happens when going to reader mode (because that is rendered as about:reader?url=$URL.)

Attachment: Always remove the soundplaying state when starting a new top-level load

Marking 42 as unaffected sine we won't ship e10s in 42.

I've tested using latest Nightly 43.0a1 (buildID: 20150818030209) and I have the following scenario:
- go to http://html5zombo.com/ (the indicator is correctly displayed) -> Mute the tab -> go to about:config (or any about: page other than about:blank) => the audio indicator icon is still shown (if I mute the tab before loading the about: page). 

Any thoughts about this? Should I reopen this bug?

No, that is the expected behavior.  The muted state on a tab is preserved across navigations.
