840970 - Volume controls are displayed as playing sound for HTML5 videos that do not have sound

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Adrian Tamas (:AdrianT)]

Firefox Mobile 19 beta 6/ Nightly 21.0a1 2013-02-12
Samsung Galaxy S2
Android 4.0.3

Steps:
1. Load random.pavlov.net/silent.ogg
2. Open the video controls
3. Try to interact with the audio controls

Expected:
The user can interact with the settings or the audio controls indicate specifically that audio is not available

Actual:
The audio control is displayed as playing sound but tapping on it does not mute the sound (change to the mute icon), using the volume keys the user actually changes the ring volume and not media volume.

Cc'ing wesj, since he's in the process of rewriting the video controls. This may just be something desktop implemented that we didn't do on mobile.
