Comment #5 on issue 3477 by garen.parham: Don't play plugin instances  
inside constrained popups?
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=3477

I just ran into this.  With several browser windows open all with multiple  
tabs,
suddenly my headphones were invaded with some audio from an advertisement.  
I couldn't
for the life of me figure out where it was coming from!  It wasn't until I  
took a
stab in the dark and closed the little RHS popup notice window that it  
stopped.

Generally, I listen to music on my PC while working and really dislike being
interrupted by unexpected active content--especially audio. The kind of  
in-your-face
advertising out there that blasts the user without regard for their  
preferences or
consent is in really bad taste, but can't we do something about it? If  
there was a
'mute' button for the browser, I'd use it.
