Audio keeps playing on closing media/attachment details popup in WP Admin

[amolv]

/wp-admin/upload.php

Click on audio file, it opens audio in Media Popup, play audio, if we click on next attachment/media audio stops playing but if we just close "Attachment Details" popup audio keeps playing in the background.

Sure enough, looks like this is happening for me too. :)

This ticket was brought up in the recent Media component meeting. Just to clarify reproduction steps, be sure to be in grid view of the Media Library when selecting the file. Then push play, close, see error.

@afercia mentioned in the meeting that this also existed in 5.2 so is not a regression from the recent 5.3 release.

Thanks for reporting this @amolv !

Looks like this happens for videos as well :)

I can reproduce as well, it's hard to know where is it configured in the code

All right, so I finally ended up finding the code.

I have uploaded a patch that works, but I'm not sure about what I do exactly, so it might be a 'bad fix'.

I saw that when switching to the next attachment in the modal, it stops the audio/video. So I looked at the code, and I saw that it fires a refresh event. This refresh event call the rerender function which do some stuff in the background that stops the audio. So I fired that event in the close event as well and it worked.

48562.1.patch is fine and fixes the issue both for audios and videos files.
