The Problem

Howler.mute(false) doesn't work sometimes after the document lost focus or if the screen is locked and then unlocked IOS Chrome, Safari. This happens when "visibilitychange" is being emitted, i.e., screen locked or if the tab is minimized. It's not an audio context issue, because I did check if the context is lost, and it's not. Sometimes the audio is back when a screen click is performed, but sometimes this doesn't work.

protected handleVisibilityChange(): void { if (document.visibilityState == 'hidden') { Howler.mute(true); } else { Howler.mute(false); } }
