Slot audio stream activity in an inactive tab.

The issue with audio playback in background tabs is related to browser power-saving policies. To force the audio stream to remain active for an inactive tab, you need to go to the browser settings: in Chrome, this is the “chrome://flags/#audio-worklet” flag and disable “Throttle Javascript timers in background.” On the https://frumziau.com/ website, this setting is not required, as the bonus sound is duplicated by system notifications, which are visible even in a minimized window. If you play on a platform where the sound fades, use the Firefox browser with the “Disable Audio Throttling” extension or launch the game in a separate PWA (progressive web app) window. You can also configure the operating system so that the browser app always takes priority over audio. Some players resort to a trick: they launch the slot in a virtual machine and listen through the host’s audio interface. But the easiest way is to choose platforms that automatically design notifications with background mode in mind. Check if the interface has a “background sound” option—it’s becoming more common with leading operators.
