Description

While I am live streaming and quit the browser using the HOME key and play a video on any other native app on android, the video is being pause constantly in 2 to 5 seconds period. It happens only with video-js tag and hls streaming. I tested using video tag with hls streaming and video-js tag with mp4. They didn't cause the pause.
