It seems audio should be regulated by the attribute 'sound-volume' valued as a portion of the system sound volume level. Too bad CSS does not define it (unverified; I cannot look it up because whatwg.org is not responding:(145) Connection timed out).

I strongly feel that both <audio> and <video> should make sound for display:none elements. The CSS display property should only affect the visual appearance of the node. Additionally, it's more efficient for us, and simpler for the author, if hidden-but-played audio/video elements don't create a frame and don't affect layout. / Jonas
