I have an app built using Capacitor. When I navigate to page, which contains video in iframe, WKWebView automatically opens video player in fullscreen without any user action.
Bug reproduces only in WKWebview, and it works fine on desktop and mobile as common website (without webview)

I tried to debug code of video player and found out the following:

When I open new page the player script creates a new video element, and call `playResult = element.play();` in Promise.
`playResult` is a Promise, and it resolves to error "NotAllowedError: The request is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context, possibly because the user denied permission."
And right after original promise resolves, on next tick WKWebView opens video player in fullscreen mode...

Also I tried to set `webViewConfiguration.mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback = [WKAudiovisualMediaTypes.video]` in webview configuration, and it fixes the bug(!), but from this point all common autoplay video are not working at all.




I attached part of player code, which can help to understand the whole picture:

[Ivan Saranchonkau]

I figured out that if I set video "playsinline" attribute, everything works fine
