This is already possible when suspending, and in fact it's on by default. See System Settings > Power Management > Advanced Power Management > [x] Pause media players when suspending. Am I understanding that you want the same thing to be possible when locking, but not suspending?

That's correct. This would be mostly beneficial to notebook users that assigned locking by closing the lid. Also, when the user sends a page from Firefox Mobile to PC, there's the possibility of that being a video/music.

Does all types of video players on main browsers stops when that setting is enabled? Or it only affects dedicated media player apps? In case it doesn't affect main browsers, perhaps it can be done by ordering FFmpeg (both the system and flatpak versions) to pause? Everything that uses MPRIS would be affected, same as the existing feature. The request seems reasonable to me. The option already exists when suspending and is shown on the Power Management KCM's Advanced page; we need to add it to the Screen Locking KCM too. |
