Sadly, this works best in Safari. Chrome requires a right click to a drop down menu to mute a tab. In Safari, it’s one click. When you open a page and music or video plays automatically, this can be untimely, circumstances depending. Rather than navigate to the page searching frantically for the player, mouse over to the tab. There will be a speaker icon in the right side of the tab you can toggle to mute the sound immediately.
