> I'm not sure what you mean by "audio is muted".  I suppose if a user agent has a UI for muting a tab, then throttling might make sense.  But that shouldn't be the normal case.

I know we've talked about adding UI to see which tab is making sound and mute it to Chrome. Also, if you mute the audio at the OS level. I assume we can detect that.

If I have http://static.echonest.com/InfiniteGangnamStyle/ loaded in a background tab and I have sound muted, I don't see why it should use CPU generating audio that I can't hear.
