Audio track requires two clicks to change if the previously selected track was programmatically added

[Abdulla060]

Description

First, I would like to express my gratitude for the development of such a great package. Video.js has been a lifesaver on multiple occasions.

I'm working on a web application using Vue.js. My application has a "Lectures" section where users can watch pre-recorded lectures. In an effort to support multiple languages, we decided to record extra audio for each lecture separately (with different languages) and then switch between them programmatically using JavaScript. However, we have noticed a problem where if you select one of the added audio tracks and then try to go back to the original (embedded) audio track, you reach a state where no track is selected and the video is playing without any sound.

Steps to reproduce

1. Play the video.
2. Switch to the "Spanish" audio track.
3. (Try to) switch back to the first track
4. No track is selected now, the video is playing without audio.
5. If you click on the first track again, it will work this time as normal.

Unfortunately, the audiotracks feature isn't really meant for that. It's used to expose the available tracks in a segmented stream like hls or dash or if the browser natively supports multiple in-file audio tracks (like safari) it will display those. Our reccomendation for if you have multiple audio tracks is to use a HLS or DASH.
