When I check my battery, it says “Librewolf is currently blocking sleep and screen locking (Playing audio)”. This happens even when there is no audio playing. What’s causing this, how do I fix it?

    There are no ads in Librewolf, Ublock Origin is installed by default.

    When I tested this, I only loaded one page that could play videos, so nothing is playing in the background.

    The same thing happens on Firefox.

      Not as simple as that and not 100%. Anyway.

      If you go to about:preferences, search for autoplay and go to Autoplay Settings, can you confirm default is Block Audio and Video and no exceptions interfering?

      If ensuring that doesn’t help, would you be able to share a URL that triggers this behavior?
