 Nice find! And glad we caught that one in the alpha. I pushed a fixup
 commit (commit 7814f97385daa7b5056bfaabe6ca56206acd6b58) to `tor-
 browser-52.7.3esr-8.0-1`.

Comment (by sysrqb):

 Right, I noticed in this in alpha, too. This is happening because
 `media.autoplay.enabled` is now `false` by default, compared with that
 pref is `true` by default in the stable release. I finally looked into
 this now, and I believe this was caused by one of the Orfox patches.

 2bcf9362c2c2820263488e3f5e9b6509da5bff2e includes setting
 `media.autoplay.enabled` = `false` in Orfox, however it also set this pref
 as `false` on desktop.

 {{{
 diff --git a/modules/libpref/init/all.js b/modules/libpref/init/all.js
 index 198028eeb96c..766e665c074a 100644
 --- a/modules/libpref/init/all.js
 +++ b/modules/libpref/init/all.js
 @@ -591,7 +591,7 @@ pref("media.encoder.webm.enabled", true);
  #endif

  // Whether to autostart a media element with an |autoplay| attribute
 -pref("media.autoplay.enabled", true);
 +pref("media.autoplay.enabled", false);
 }}}

 I partly prefer disabling autoplay, but the UX is not good, and this
 wasn't an intentional change on desktop, so I think we should revert this.
 `media.autoplay.enabled` is set as false in the mobile-specific pref file
 (mobile.js), already - so changing `modules/libpref/init/all.js` shouldn't
 affect Orfox.

 FWIW this message appears sometimes:

 The situation with vimeo.com is way worse ;)

 (thought at first that it was a problem with my graphics driver that I had
 updated but seems like it's not)

 We got reports that videos on Youtube don't play anymore automatically in
 Tor Browser when loaded (see:
 https://blog.torproject.org/comment/274954#comment-274954). Rather, one
 has to pause them first and then start playing them.
