This is a known (and long-standing) issue. Oxide (the web engine that powers the browser app) isn’t fully hooked to media-hub (which handles media queuing and playback on behalf of applications). So as soon as it goes into the background, it is suspended, thus pausing the playback. https://launchpad.net/bugs/1471786 has more information. Note that a way around that issue could be to create webapps for those specific websites, using the --enable-media-hub-audio command-line parameter. Or you could use podbird to listen to your favourite podcasts (https://uappexplorer.com/app/com.mikeasoft.podbird).
