            Bug ID: 233307
           Summary: [GTK] media autoplay deny does not always work
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

I've epiphany-41.0-1.fc35.x86_64 and webkit2gtk3-2.34.1-2.fc35.x86_64. I do not know better pages, thus at least these. When I open https://finance.yahoo.com , then the lock icon menu in the address bar has "Deny" for everything, including Media Autoplay. However, when I Ctrl+click on an article link, which contains a video, then the video is started automatically. I see in the lock icon menu that the media autoplay is still disabled. When I open the link by writing the URL into the address bar, then the autoplay is not started, as expected. 

I thought the open in a new tab has its impact on this, but then I realized a simple non-Ctrl Click also ignores the media autoplay deny.
