#41290: Embedded videos not keyboard accessible once video is playing

 There are problems trying to operate videos embedded with the native
 editor in WordPress if I'm a keyboard only user.
 Before the video has started playing I can tab to most of the various
 video controls and clearly see where I am. However, a few seconds after
 the video has started playing, the controls disappear. It's now impossible
 to see where keyboard focus is and to easily operate the rest of the
 controls using a keyboard.

 Ideally, the controls should become visible again whenever I press tab or
 shift-tab - like they do if I hover over the video with a mouse pointer.

 I have made a video to demonstrate the issue: https://youtu.be/7N1-Ch7QbtA

 I'm running Chrome 59 on Windows 10. WP version 4.8 on PHP7.
