Toggling hand raised seems to cause this, unable to reproduce with other sounds.

@Half-Shot are you working on this?

[Half-Shot]

I don't seem to be able to reproduce this at all (I tried very hard with all sorts of browser / audio setting combinations), so I think it first ideally needs someone who can provide better steps.

[fkwp]

btw. which version of EC is that issue referring to?

[Half-Shot]

I believe this was last stable, so v0.7.1

I believe this was last stable, so v0.7.1

Any chance that #2863 improves the situation?

[Half-Shot]

yeah, it's plausible. I didn't do anything directly to help but possibly AudioContexts overlayed works better than AudioContext + tags.
