Comment (by joelyoder):

 @kentallenduke can you test and see if this issue persists if you add the
 {{{muted}}} attribute to the video tags? Chrome has a number of
 [https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/09/autoplay-policy-changes
 different policies limiting] when and where a video will autoplay, and
 marking a video as muted usually is the best solution for videos without
 audio.
