Hit the Play button on the website 4. Observe the endless stream of stall events that my player is outputting to the debug console. Actual results: My <audio> handler is reporting numerous stall events despite there being no stalls in the actual audio stream. Expected results: No stall events should be fired. This was not a problem in Firefox 57.

Revisiting the code in my library, it waits 1 second before considering a stall event to be real and logging it to the console. To work around the bug I'm going to increase 1 second to 2 seconds and add some extra logging so the stall events can be more closely monitored in this bug.

Summary: Icecast Ogg Vorbis streams produce excessive unnecessary stall events → Icecast Ogg Vorbis streams produce excessive unnecessary suspend events
I have narrowed down the issue to the suspend event over-firing, and worked around it on my site. I've worked around it by listening for timeupdate events on the <audio> element, and setting a timeout on my suspend event handler to debounce. You can still see the suspend event firing when unncessary in the Javascript console.
If an isolated case of a blank HTML page with just an <audio> event and some simpler Javascript is required, please let me know.
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0 Hi Rob, thanks for reporting this. I managed to reproduce the issue using latest Firefox Release 58.0.1 on Windows 10 x64. The <audio> handler displays a lot of stall events in the Browser Console when playing an item from the website. However, I wasn't able to reproduce this issue using Firefox Beta 59.0b6 and Firefox Nightly 60.0a1 (2018-02-04). Can you please confirm that this issue is not reproducible on your side by testing it with the latest Nightly build? You can download it from here: https://nightly.mozilla.org/.
