Video stops playing when switching desktops #53

This is happening for twitch specifically, haven't tested anything else.

Repro:

Open multilple desktops
Open safari on one of the desktops
Go to twitch and start watching a stream.
Click the PIPifier button
- Should now have video playing in PIP mode
Switch to other desktop
Video stops playing
Clicking play doesn't start it

Seeing this with twitch as well, but even using the javascript command directly javascript:document.querySelector("video").webkitSetPresentationMode("picture-in-picture"); in a bookmarklet also has this same issue so it might be a problem with safari or the OS itself
