when I had 3wk open in one tab and then switched to youtube to watch a movie it muted both as soon as I clicked on the full screen in youtube, after that it muted both even when not in full screen.

No unmute button, which would not be a problem, if it wont be bugging all the time.

I've been testing this for about 2 weeks now and have had to grab up the other groovy extension 'smart tab mute' to deal with when it fails, which was okay for a while. I really want to like this extension, unfortunately bugs out too often which makes it no longer useful to me at this time. It will seemingly randomly (no extended lul in active tab or anything 2x speed talking udemy videos with youtube music.. the youtube music will always trump the talking video of course) switch to the youtube music and sometimes it will even do that AND switch off the udemy talking video :( I cant realistically use it anymore but giving it three stars bc I reaaaallly hope they keep up this project and I hope when I try this again in a few months they made a few adjustments. Keep up the good work!
