Some platform media engines (namely, QTKit and AVFoundation) only emit a mediaPlayerTimeChanged callback during discontinuities (I.e. scrubbing).  So on those platforms, this behavior will not occur.  On what platform are you seeing this behavior?

That should be handled independent of the MediaPlayerPrivate by HTMLMediaElement::playbackProgressTimerFired(Timer<HTMLMediaElement>*) and thus by mediaControls()->playbackProgressed().

This is a good fix, but I think you may be fixing the symptom of a larger issue.  And perhaps we should make explicit the expectation that mediaPlayerTimeChanged() is only called during scrubbing / seeking.
