Additional Information:

@MadAboutThis that would be a very weird issue and likely wouldn’t be something to do with Brave. Just to verify, have you played audio on any other web browsers or from any other apps/sources?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, when I play videos using the Samsung browser (which is embedded in the Android and I can’t remove), it does not happen. I’ve turned off notifications in Android and in Brave. So, no reports of this nature?

@MadAboutThis you’re the first person I’ve seen mention it. If it would be possible to record and share it might be helpful. Regardless, I’d like you to try the following troubleshooting steps to further narrow things down.

  1. Open a private window and see if it happens there.
    (If it does, then go to next step)

  2. Install Brave Beta or Brave Nightly to see if it happens there as well
    (If it does, then go to next step)

  3. Install/use Chrome and test on it. (Samsung Browser is different browser engine, so testing on Chrome helps to see if it’s Brave specific or something with Chromium)
