Success Criterion 1.4.2 in WCAG 2.1 requires that audio should not play automatically (unless it plays for at most three seconds or controls for the audio volume are available). This also applies to videos containing audio. Success Criterion 2.2.2 in WCAG 2.1 requires that "for any moving, blinking or scrolling information that (1) starts automatically, (2) lasts more than five seconds, and (3) is presented in parallel with other content, there is a mechanism for the user to pause, stop, or hide it (...)". These requirements have been applied to non-web documents in Chapter 10 of ETSI standard EN 301 549. (This is the accessibility standard that will apply when the European Accessibility Act enters into force in June 2025.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
