Since i updated flash player a few days ago i have this strange issue with flash player on youtube, i watch a video, than i go back a page, and on the previous page the previous video starts to play again, only the sound though! Today i received a update for Flash but it did not fix the issue! I am not the only one as seeing the many youtubers pointing out the issue here:

What OS?

What browser?

Just my $0.02... if you leave a page and the content on the previous page still plays, you've got some serious browser problems, or a video/audio hardware problem, in that your connection is going faster than the hardware can keep up with.

Its NOT on my side! Look at the link i added! Many people have this issue, and many probably also have it but can't even find the Google forum!

I just started seeing this yesterday. I installed the plugin "Turn off the lights" for YouTube, it dims the screen when a video starts. If I opened a new page with another video, the sound from the first one kept playing, so I had sound from two videos with only one open. Uninstalling the plugin stopped it. If you use this plugin, it is on your end. It was on mine. I can do without "Turn off the lights" if that's what it does.
