UPD: For my situation I think I've found the root cause of the issue - most
likely this was happening due to plasma integration plugin installed in chrome
(https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/plasma-integration/cimiefiiaegbelhefglklhhakcgmhkai).
After I removed this plugin, the play/pause button on my keyboard started to
work. Then in some time I reinstalled this plugin  and as it was suggested in
one of the comments on chrome marketplace,  I disabled chrome's hardware media
handling (chrome://flags/#hardware-media-key-handling). After this done I have
never encountered any issues with media controls . I hope this helps.

The same on Kubuntu, media player control button (play/pause) just stops
working occasionally. Checked media control button functionality with xev,
play/pause media button press is being detected by the system (keycode 172
(keysym 0x1008ff14, XF86AudioPlay)).  Also no luck with adding or removing the
media control widget to  the tray or Task manager panel. "Shortcuts->Media
Controller->Play/Pause media playback" is set to "Media play" (tried to
reassign it to some other combination with no luck). Orlando's solution with
notification settings also didn't work out for me. 

Looking forward for this issue to be resolved as the ability to play/pause 
videos   running in the background   is critical for me.  I often follow
tutorials on youtube etc and need to stop them while being focused on other
windows.
