It was resolved on October 8. Thank you for alerting us on this mailing list. We really appreciate your feedback. Regards, Brad On Tuesday, October 8, 2013 11:26:04 AM UTC-7, Scott Blanks wrote:
I may have missed a post here, so apologies if this is a repeat question. Are there plans to disable the automatic muting on Youtube? There are few situations where playing a video or audio file is best accomplished with the file in question on mute from the start. Also, as many screen reader users know, the default mute can be circumnavigated with some keyboard gymnastics, but I'm not particularly interested in settling for a multiple keystroke workaround to something that shouldn't be an issue in the first place. Over to you, Google accessibility team, care to weigh in here? Scott
