OK this site is auto playing the local radio station https://www.npr.org/ here is what I have done about:config media.autoplay.default = 1 and in settings set to block audio BUT when I click on a link to a story and return to the page the sound starts playing FYI the links to the news stories do not need sound so what is not working here ? Some one made a change to something so lets fix it
