<p> This describes a failure condition for Success Criteria involving sound. If sound does not
turn off automatically within 3 seconds and there is no way to turn the
sound off then Success Criterion 1.4.2 would not be met. Sounds that play over 3 seconds
when there is no mechanism to turn off the sound included in the content
would fall within this failure condition. </p>

I think it's important to mention that most browsers use heuristics to mute automatically playing audio / video now. That's probably not sufficient as a mechanism, at least that's what ACT concluded when we looked at it. Similarly, several browser support muting individual tabs, we didn't think that qualifies as a mechanism either. I think its important to make that clear.

I completely agree.
In addition, some platforms offer the possibility to mute specific browser windows. I would neither consider this a valid mechanism.
In the initial issue description, the phrase "turn off the sound independently from any other audio output." was used. I think this is much closer to what we want to achieve.

<p>This describes a failure condition for Success Criteria involving sound. If sound does not
turn off automatically within 3 seconds and there is no way to turn the
sound off, independently from the overall system volume level, then Success Criterion 1.4.2 would not be met.

sound off, independently from the overall system volume level, then Success Criterion 1.4.2 would not be met.
sound off, or control the volume independently from the overall system volume level, then Success Criterion 1.4.2 would not be met.

The sound would fall within this failure condition. </p>
