描述

Description

After playing any sort of media through Brave, its session with MPRIS will never close, leaving it as a "stopped" but active player that never goes away, effectively hijacking playerctl and whatnot by preventing media controls from being passed through to other players (such as Spotify).

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Brave Browser
  2. Have two or more tabs open
  3. Play any videos/media
  4. Close the tab playing said media, leaving other tabs open

Actual result

As long as Brave Browser continues to be open, until the browser is fully and completely closed, it will hold MPRIS/playerctl hostage and prevent any other player from receiving media controls (play/pause, skip, etc)

Expected result

Brave Browser should no longer be an active player, and thus shouldn't be appearing in playerctl, as there is no media to be played, nor is there anything to be controlled.

研究方向
Investigate how Brave manages MPRIS sessions. The issue indicates that after closing a media tab, the MPRIS session remains active. Look at Brave's media handling code, particularly the MPRIS service implementation. Check if there is a condition to remove the session when no media is playing. Refer to the issue comments for any additional hints. Consider testing with different tab configurations.
