            Bug ID: 262781
           Summary: Silent mode plays back compressed audio, but not
                    uncompressed audio
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 16
          Hardware: iPhone / iPad
                OS: iOS 16
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Audio
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

STR:

1. Visit iPhone to http://clb.confined.space/audio_test_suite/
2. Open the first entry 8bit_detective

TEST 1, UNCOMPRESSED PLAYBACK:

3. Flip the switch on the side of the iPhone to make sure the phone is *not* in silent mode. (I am testing on iPhone Xs that still has physical silent/ringer switch, I recall newer iPhones moved to an Action button or something else?)
4. Click on the first entry under "Play uncompressed:" heading.
4b. Observe that audio plays back properly.

5. Switch iPhone to silent mode (the physical switch on the side/via Action button)
5b. Observe that audio will now go silent.

TEST 2, COMPRESSED PLAYBACK:

6. Flip the switch on the side of the iPhone to make sure the phone is *not* in silent mode.
7. Click on the first entry under "Play compressed:" heading.
7b. Observe that audio plays back properly.

8. Switch iPhone to silent mode
8b. Observe that audio will still play back.

EXPECTED:

In 5b and 8b, audio should either go silent in both cases, or in neither.

Silencing only uncompressed audio in silent mode makes little sense.

Not sure if iOS 17 has the same issue, I don't have a device at hand to test.
