User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:9.0a1) Gecko/20110823 Firefox/9.0a1 Steps to reproduce: In either 6.0 or the nightly: 1. Set media.autoplay.enabled to false. 2. Go to http://www.youtube.com/html5 and join the HTML 5 trial. 3. Go to any HTML 5 YouTube video. Actual results: It autostarts. Especially annoying if you open multiple YouTube tabs in the background, or if you open the browser and it loads a YouTube tab from a previous session. Expected results: It should not autostart.
