What happened?

Since updating to 1.10b, I can't listen to music on Zen, as the stream randomly stops (using self-hosted Jellyfin). It was working perfectly until I updated, and it works perfectly fine in default Firefox and in other browsers.

If I have focus on the tab reproducing the music, then there is no problem, otherwise after exactly 45 seconds of no-focus, the music will stop, and also the controls in the music player won't work.

Reproducible?

• I have checked that this issue cannot be reproduced on Mozilla Firefox.

Version

I have this with Spotify too in 1.10b, exactly 45 seconds of no-focus.

It's the same with Youtube Music. Zen switches automatically to the Youtube Music tab and wants to reload (?) it because I see the dialog "This page is asking you to confirm that you want to leave — information you’ve entered may not be saved." with the "Stay on Page" or "Leave Page" selection.

You cannot use Spotify because it has DRM. It's not new.

Sorry, forget to mention, I use Linux. Zen has DRM support there.

Have the same bug with Youtube Music on Windows 11 as well. Zen is basically unusable with YT music.

Experiencing the same issue with Spotify here, though the issue does not occur if I add Spotify to essentials.
