            Bug ID: 256803
           Summary: [GTK] [GStreamer] Wrong icon (loudspeaker /
                    speakerphone) shown in browser tabs playing silent or
                    muted looping videos
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK

Originally filed at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/2074

With Epiphany 44.2 + WebKitGTK 2.40.1 + GStreamer 1.22.2, as packaged by Fedora 38, if you visit https://interbrand.com for example, it will autoplay a muted version of a looping video in the hero banner area at the top. There is an unmute button you can click on the video, but let's not care about that for now.

The problem is that even if it's playing silently, it shows this loudspeaker icon in the tab in the Epiphany UI (and sometimes it bugs out and even shows it when the tab is unfocused, whereas at other times it does not show it): https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/uploads/e4f07aa1b9d7e431b1df35d7c6001263/image.png

Shouldn't it use a different icon (or no icon at all) when the playing videos are muted or have no audio track?
