Re: 1.4.2 audio control, do we want to require the stop mechanism to be more discoverable?

Yup, works in FF on MAC and Windows.

Any way to do this with a keyboard in Chrome, Safari and other browsers? If
so, perhaps EO can help find a way to get the word out to other users ... I
don't think many know about it, and plenty of users are dogged with
autoplay messing up their screen readers.

It seems to me, given that CTL+M does it, that no site can fail 1.4.2
because a mechanism is available in at least one accessibility supported
stack.

Cheers,
David MacDonald
