Firefox (at least in Windows) does allow sleep when there's a no-audio video.


This is true now. But for awhile did not and any video would keep the PC awake.

Ended up being a security risk at our company because someone in marketing didn’t know this and made a full screen video. Well, cleaning staff came in and almost all our PCs were on because lots of people use the company website.

Fixed that nonsense right away.
