So all the poeple tweeting about the chrome autoplay update broke your stuff, can you send me links that broke because we are currently implementing a similiar thing in Firefox and would like to make sure we dont break it all

It's really simple. Just make "this site wants to play sound" a popdown allow now/always/deny prompt. No nasty heuristics privileging YT and violating least-surprise. No way for site to tell what user picked.

IMHO Firefox already has the perfect solution, just flip the speaker icon in the tab bar from "enabled" to "disabled" for every new page you visit, and remember how the user decided, could feed *initial* state with a whitelist

PS, I guess I want to say: please no more popups, it's alsready bad enough with fullscreen and pointer-lock (so a full-screen game with pointer-lock and audio would have 3(!) popups)...

How does this matter? It only happens once ever per site unless you don't pick always or never.

every additional click matters IMHO, if a webpage requires more "work" by the user than installing a desktop application or from the app store, the web becomes pointless

Clicking an "always" button is "more work" than downloading an installer, finding and running it, clicking through wizard dialogs, etc? Um, no.
