Video streams crash when restoring a closed tab

Live running video streams (Twitch and Youtube) crash when I reopen a recently closed tab.
The browser will do a 'screen flash' as if it just crashed and restored itself, interrupting any live streams that are playing.
It's not consistent in when it happens, only happening sometimes after prolonged use, and usually not twice in a row. Which could indicate an issue with the memory being used for the stream and having to find a closed tab. I would still say it happens very often. Youtube streams will usually rebuffer, while Twitch stream goes to an error message telling you to refresh the player. Other content (text, images, etc.) in any tabs stay loaded (uninterrupted).
Currently on Opera One 109.0.5097.35 on Windows 10, and this has been an issue that annoyed me since at least 108.x. I could not find it through searching the forums, so sorry if I missed a post about it.
To reproduce:
- Have a live stream (or several) running in their own tabs.
- Go to a website in a second tab.
- Close the second tab and reopen it. Crash is inconsistent.
