I have my site permissions set to block audio and video autoplay at all times, but on occasion videos will still play automatically, albeit without audio. Interestingly, when this happens, the blue dot on the lock icon stlil appears, and when I click on the lock icon, it says both audio and video autoplay are being blocked.

I first noticed this on news.yahoo.com article pages, and it is worth pointing out that blocking both audio and video autoplay used to work on those pages. I have no site-specific autoplay exceptions enabled.
