Disable media controls overlay without disabling media keys

Hello,

I want to disable media controls overlay without disabling media keys. I wandered in config but couldn't prevail with said subject. Its a nice feature unless I have to stop a quite few times then its just a blockage for my much needed viewspace.

Thank you.

I found solution by using 3rd party application named HideVolumeOSD. It disables immediatly after you install it no settings etc needed.

Address if anyone needs: http://wordpress.venturi.de

Although I wish we could have the option to choose within Firefox.
