--- Comment #3 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
I think that's a case of assuming your own use cases apply more broadly than
they do. A lot of people use YouTube to listen to music exclusively, as weird
as it sounds. It's also valid to want to use the global media hotkeys to play
and pause a running non-music YouTube video, despire having a paused music
player open (this describes my use case). And since you brought up KDE connect,
if we implemented what you request, then if you had a YouTube video playing in
a browser while a media player was paused in the background, when your phone
rings, KDE Connect would try to pause the media player that's already paused
(because it has priority) rather than the playing video in the browser.

You do have an option to register your preference by marking the media player
as the active one in the applet, rather than letting it automatically switch
between them.

> I also have issues with KDE Connect appearing over a local music player
This seems like an issue specific to KDE Connect and I would recommend that you
file a bug there.
