<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I was wondering if anyone had any experience with using policy.json to allow exceptions for websites that automatically play sound.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The situation: My company has a specific website internally that relies on a product/extension called Qumu to play multicast video streams. This website doesn’t automatically play the sounds by default and requires the end user to manually
click/allow the sound on the page to be played, or manually go to about:preferences#privacy, and click “exceptions…” and type the url in there for it to work.

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My research: After looking at the different preferences that can be set, none allowed for exceptions for specific websites via policy.json. I did find things fairly close regarding permissions, but it was only for Location, Camera, Microphone,
and Notifications.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><img width="524" height="42" style="width:5.4583in;height:.4375in" id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.png@01D5D753.D0D82020"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My questions: Has anyone been able to allow exceptions for specific websites to automatically play sound? If not, what did you do? I’m not sure this is even possible but is there a policy to allow for sound to automatically play from any/all
websites?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
