The option "Block websites from automatically playing sound" should be synchronized using Firefox Account.
Currently, it doesn't sync when changed.

String id: permissions-block-autoplay-media2

I couldn't find the preference id for this option in privacy.xul
https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/preferences/in-content/privacy.xul#578

For more exotic prefs like that, you can usually search for the checkbox ID (in this case, autoplayMediaCheckbox). One of the results is https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/5e3bffe964110b8d1885b4236b8abd5c94d8f609/browser/components/preferences/in-content/privacy.js#356-357, and toggleAutoplayMedia has the pref we're looking for: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/5e3bffe964110b8d1885b4236b8abd5c94d8f609/browser/components/preferences/in-content/privacy.js#1113

Want to submit a patch? :-)

Mentor: lina

So here I have to add the following string under the // Preferences to be synced by default in firefox.js

pref("services.sync.prefs.sync.media.autoplay.default", true);

Yes.
