If the browser or renderer crashed (“Aw, Snap”), please add any crash
IDs from chrome://crashes  (possibly after enabling crash reporting per
http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=96817)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Go to Webtorrent.io
(2) Wait for the video to start playing.
(3) Static sound can be heared when video is loaded. Even while the video is muted.

What is the expected result?
No static sound.

What is the actual result?
Static sound.

Any additional information (anything else which may help us debug the
issue)? It is also present on any other chromium based platform. (the Battle.net launcher uses chromium for certain UI elements. The video's there also produce static sound when loaded, doesn't have to be playing)
I noticed this issue only occurs when I have the MaxxAudio technology enabled (which is default) on my monitor (LG 34UC99-W).
