Still broken team 2 months later :( As a result I have horrible UX now
as users need to click into a visible window for audio to
automatically kick on and then disappear... every single map change...
making the commands not as helpful as they were.
This is looking like a simple one-liner,
`command_line->AppendSwitchWithValue("autoplay-policy",
"no-user-gesture-required");`. More than happy to commit this myself;
alternatively please let me know when someone internally can resolve
this easy issue :-).
