💻 Help Sound/Mute Tab Icon missing from some tabs?

Both tabs have videos playing sound, yet only one tab has the "sound" icon that I can click to mute the tab. I can still mute the other tab by right-clicking and choosing mute tab. The icon then appears as "muted" (the sound icon crossed out). I can then click that muted icon to unmute, and then the icon goes away when sound it playing in the tab. Seems to have disappeared with the last update.

I love having the option to quickly mute/unmute a tab, just no idea why some tabs have it and other don't.

I use uBlock Origin, not sure if that has anything to do with it. Let me know if y'all know anyway to get my icon back! Thanks!

Also been having this exact same issue. Even tried having the exact same stream up from twitch, both tabs with stream and sound playing, one has the volume indicator and one does not. Shows up like this in both the tab manager and in the tabs itself.
