Nightly, Ubuntu 22.04 using Wayland. I have a pinned tab with https://dnbradio.com/player/stations/1/ loaded which has an audio player on the page. It tends to start itself playing when I open my laptop, despite me having stopped the stream (by clicking the page's pause button.). Today it started playing out of the blue so I clicked mute, and it continued playing.
I got this profile using the media presets on about:logging. The music is playing the whole time. I select the tab and unmute and mute it again - still playing. https://share.firefox.dev/3w9qdW2

The media code is behaving as usual, it would be great to have the same logs, but with "AudioChannel:4" added to the list. Zeroing in on the range can be done by checking for the click event on the mute icon in the parent process.
As a result of muting a tab, e.g. the audio callbacks should stop.

Here's a new logging profile with AudioChannel:4 added. https://share.firefox.dev/3UvQ17Y
I just right-clicked the pinned tab to unmute and then mute again. The music from that tab was playing the whole time.

Hmm there was still no audio channel logging in your profiled result, did you add that from about:logging? It should be recorded in the main thread, but I didn't see any. Even the media element logs looks like missing. (not completed).
Could you help me do it again by selecting media playback preset first, then add AudioChannel:5 again? (also make sure that AudioChannel:5 appears on Currently enabled log modules section)
In addition, does muting/unmuting work on other websites? or only fail on dnbradio? would all audio on that website fail, or only certain audio? I couldn't reproduce this on my Windows 11.
Thanks!

This seems to be tightly coupled to going into and coming out of the sleep/suspend state on Ubuntu. Which might even be hardware specific as that in turn builds on device drivers as I understand it. If that's the case, will the about:logging settings contain clues? I have been able to reproduce with a zoom recording on https://mozilla.hosted.panopto.com/ so I don't think its specific to a particular site. I don't have more logs to share yet - I want to reproduce on a clean(er) profile. I did just try to reproduce in chromium but nothing so far. Leaving my need-info for now.

It's just a normal bug most probably. If you can reproduce on Linux maybe just get us a pernosco recording.

I just had this kinda happen again. Not sure if its the same issue or not. I had a tab open again to dnbradio.com, but the audio on there was not playing - I had intentionally stopped it before shutting my laptop. Later I opened my laptop and spent some time browsing. Then my wifi connection dropped, and when it came back up, the dnbradio page automatically started playing - it was not an active tab and I had not interacted with it since stopping the audio stream earlier today. Sorry, no profile recorded.

This morning, as I opened my laptop my music started playing. Keyboard mute didn't work until I logged in (unlocked) This time it had nothing to do with firefox - I had been listening to it through Rhythmbox, a desktop app. So while there might be a firefox component to this bug, assuming these things are related its at least partly a OS/driver issue.
