Youtube continues playback while browsing another page

Hi!

I've recently (within a week or so) had this problem where I have a youtube video paused on one tab and while browsing another site on another tab the youtube video unpauses and continues to play the video.

This happens continually and so I have to either mute the video or close the youtube tab so it doesn't distract my browsing. The problem stops also if I refresh the youtube page.
