Too late for firefox 52, mass-wontfix.

Sorina, could you please help test this again in nightly/58?

I tried the STR and found that once the YT video was paused, the media control in notification bar just disappeared. And after I opened another tab to play the Newshub video the control notification took effect only to it, and YT video stayed paused.

Thanks a lot.

Tested again myself, YT videos are paused when another tab is opened. But tried with CNN videos and one HLS video and media control notification is updated with the video who plays, and one video is stopped. 
This issue is no longer reproducible, closing as INVALID.
