Description of the issue:

Video on youtube stops when i adjust the volume.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. stop autoplay (in the brave settings i guess it was)
  2. open youtube
  3. play a video - change the Volume → video stops

Expected result:

Video should continue playing after just adjusting the volume

@timofuturum,
Thank you for reaching out. This is actually a known issue that appears to be caused when Autoplay is disabled for the site:

Can you try enabling Autoplay and tell me whether or not the issue persists?

Hi, I’ve been having the same issue. I turn autoplay to OFF, and then whenever I adjust the volume of a youtube or twitch video, it pauses. Turning autoplay back ON fixes the issue (but of course videos are now autoplaying which I hate).

There are reports of this as far back as December 2020, but I haven’t found a fix other than to install a third-party extension and not turn off autoplay in Brave.
