Bug Description
Ubuntu Gnome 18.10
Expected behaviour:
Play media content in different tab in Firefox while viewing a page in Firefox' readingview (that option given in the URL-bar for a text version of a site)
What happens:
As soon as i open the website in Firefox special readingview, all sounds from the media tab starts to make crackling sounds.
Workaround:
Close Firefox and don't use reading view.
Second workaround:
Removing packet "speech-dispatcher" completly remove this issue.
This issue is extra annoying in Kubuntu as it starts as soon as i open one of the PIM applications, i.e. kmail or akkregator.
Seems to be cross-distribution as i experienced it on OpenSUSE Leap 15 / Tumbleweed KDE and could be resolved by removing speech-dispatcher packet.
