When Options page is opened, some words are spoken #196

I suspect this is a bug in the "Speak The Word" feature.

Although the pronunciation is not very clear, it seems that the following three words are spoken: "the", "vu" and "vu".

It takes about 10 seconds for the pronunciation of these three words to start. It pauses for 3 seconds between the words.

The attached screenshot shows that sound is being produced by the tab containing the options page.

This problem happens when I open the options page either through "chrome://extensions/" or through the icon in the top right corner. It does not happen when I reload the options page.

@ceilican u mean the words "the", "vu" and "vu" that are spoken when the page is loaded to be removed ?

Exactly. Do you know why this is happening?

The sound is coming due to the file /MindTheWord/dist/views/includes/advanced.html . On the line no. 164 in the above file, we have HTML code : . Due to this line of code, the youtube video is playing automatically in the background. This youtube video contains the sounds which are being heard on the main page. I guess the solution to this would be removing the autoplay option from the youtube video URL.
