      This is really frustrating, i can't go on facebook or do anything at all when im watching a twitch stream because always pause the second i switch tabs.

      Is there anything that can fix this issue?

        @abnerfrei Doesn't it return to play when you go back to the tab?

          @leocg Nope, i have to manually play.

          After some testing, i discovered that this particular issue happens when i mute the stream. But, if i mute the tab, the stream keeps going just fine.
