<![CDATA[Multiple instances of the same video play when pressing space bar]]>Ive noticed this problem yesterday. I was on a video hosting website and while videos alone seemed fine, when I started watching a video in a playlist I noticed the sound is playing multiple times.

Today I noticed on 9GAG that when I open a post in separate tab, the video, even paused, starts playing it's sound whenever I press spacebar. What I mean is, if Im typing out a comment, every time I add a space, the sound from video starts playing, but they all stack, so I have multiple sounds playing at the same time.

Additionally, after bringing my laptop from sleep mode (not something that caused the previous problems) a video from yesterday started randomly playing.

Does anyone know what could be causing this?

I have already reported this in Jira, so I hope it will be fixed soon.

Ive also noticed this happens when I press Ctrl, but not if the cursor is in a text box (like box for comments). Also, only the sound plays, video remains paused.
