Google could soon fix this annoying audio playback issue in Chrome for Android

TL;DR Chrome for Android tablets could soon get a fix for an annoying bug with picture-in-picture (PiP) mode. The bug causes audio to continue playing even after the user closes the PiP window. Google developers have already created a fix for the bug, and it’s currently being tested in Chrome Canary.

If you use Google Chrome on your Android tablet, you might have encountered an annoying bug with picture-in-picture mode where audio continues playing even after the PiP window is closed. Fortunately, that behavior could change soon. A new commit has been made to the Chromium Gerrit, aimed specifically at fixing this bug (via PiunikaWeb ).
