In particular I count 13 frontend problems with the old TMH kaltura player.
There is clearly no intent to fix those (volunteer or employee), as the
Kaltura player has been unmaintained for 8 years.
The choices as far as I can tell are to ignore them, undeploy a/v playback
or to direct C-level management to get the audio and video stuff together.
