Autoplay: allow autoplay for kiosk applications

Project Member Reported by mlamouri@chromium.org, Jun 26 2018

Issue description

Kiosk mode often doesn't have ways to interact with the page. It would be easier for application developers to simply have autoplay enabled even for their <webview> in this case.

commit 8e20a770c6072f9563c9c12f001876c7ae59469a
Author: Mounir Lamouri <mlamouri@chromium.org>

Autoplay: allow autoplay for kiosk applications.

The different with other Chrome Apps is that <webview> should also be
allowed to autoplay if they are inside a Kiosk application.

Status: Fixed (was: Started)
I'm still observing a webview within an autoolaunched kiosk app not being allowed to autoplay on Chrome OS 70. Source code seems to indicate this should work, but alas, still stuck. Any suggestions?
