Opps, forgot to answer this one. I strongly feel that both <audio> and
<video> should make sound for display:none elements. The CSS display
property should only affect the visual appearance of the node.
Additionally, it's more efficient for us, and simpler for the author, if
hidden-but-played audio/video elements don't create a frame and don't
affect layout.
