      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 was trying to edit the post but cant see the button.

        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.

            I have the same problem in classic Opera (not GX). I have already reported this in Jira, so I hope it will be fixed soon.

              Same, for some reason it doesn't happen on YouTube, but happens everywhere else.
