It appears that since version 0.6.2 I have been encountering more unintended HTML5 autoplay events. The most recent one:

I can confirm that this autoplays.

I can tell you with high certainty that this isn't the case. The only possiblity could be if they were using the YouTube player, because that's the only part of the autoplay disabling code that changed.

Okay, thanks. Indeed, the other autoplay events might have been on Youtube, but I will wait to see if I encounter something reproducible.
