Permanently Mute Automatic Audio on Videos

Show all headers | View raw

Firefox v. 149.0.2

If relevant, I have "Updates disabled by your organization" enabled.

Lately, whenever I launch a webpage, and a video add appears(for Allstate 
Auto Insurance, for instance), or a news story, audio automatically begins to 
play.  The only way I can turn the audio off is to right-click on the browser 
tab and select Mute tab.  I have to do this everytime such an add or video 
appears.

Is there a way to permanently disable this annoyance?

Thanks.
