Example URL:

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. play audio from one tab
2. open another tab that would play audio (for example, duplicating a tab playing a youtube video)
3. the new tab mutes itself.

What is the expected behavior?
New autoplaying tabs should not automute themselves.

What went wrong?
New autoplaying tabs *do* automute themselves.

Did this work before? Yes unknown

Is it a problem with Flash or HTML5? N/A

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

I'm not sure if this is a bug or intended behavior, but it definitely didn't happen before.
