Abrowser starts embedded audio automatically, can't be stopped [solved]

Description

Starting today Abrowser 56.0 will start an embedded video in various web pages, such as: https://www.lowes.com/projects/repair-and-maintain/maintain-a-garage-door/project

Audio will begin, but the video portion will remain frozen. Happens on other websites also. I just did a software update on 2017-12-24 1145 EST.

It appears that the issue was an add-on: "HTML 5 Video Everywhere!". Once I disabled that, the problem went away.
