            Bug ID: 284718
           Summary: [GStreamer] Playing voice messages on WhatsApp freezes
                    the system
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs

This is an issue that in the past only caused the browser or web page to freeze, but recently it has ended up causing the entire system to freeze.
The peculiarity of this issue is that it occurs if you use the Epiphany rpm (Fedora Workstation) package but not if you use the flatpak version (tested the TP version on GNOME OS).
To reproduce it, you just need to be on a Fedora system, have the plugins for all multimedia formats installed (including those available via RPM Fusion) and run WhatsApp from the Epiphany web browser (rpm package).
