As of around 6 weeks ago (bit of a guess) I no longer have the option of pausing/playing media on a tab from the tab list. For at least the last few years prior to this issue, whenever I had a tab playing media (mostly video, but sometimes audio e.g. a podcast episode on BBC.com) there would be a small pause button for that tab in the tab list.

I've attached a attachment (2 screenshots merged). The tab with the purple circle is currently playing a MP4 video (streamable.com) and I would usually see a pause button, I think where the circle is located but might have been in a different corner.

I found this Reddit thread which mentions the issue but outside of the 2 people in this thread I have not found any other info or reports. https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1rh5gcy/youtube_buttons_playpause_missing_in_android/

Additional info: while playing video, I am able to pause through system notification (see image attachment) so the playback IS recognized. But no pause/play button in tab list.

Version and device info: 150.0.1 (Build #2016157687), 094f3362dcbcefdce34f05b355607cdce06a4ef4 GV: 150.0.1-20260427013024 AS: 150.0.1 OS: Android 16

Hi there,

Thanks for sharing the reference link from Firefox subreddit. To be clear, I assume you're using the release version and not Firefox beta, right?

Sadly, I'm not familiar with the button, but I can definitely check with my team next week.

Hey, after asking around, we found this bug report. It looks like the team have acknowledged this as an improvement request for the new UI, even though we have no concrete commitment so far.
