Description

This is a recurrence of an issue that was previously fixed: CB-1957

Steps to reproduce

1. Load a YouTube video (with audio track) in the InAppBrowser
2. Play the video
3. Close InAppBrowser

Expected result:

• Audio stops playing

Actual result:

• Audio continues playing

Fix:

We encountered this bug as part of development and modified the InAppBrowser plugin to resolve it. The fix is part of our production code, is stable and has been through our QA. It does require extending the Android Dialog class, however.

I've added an attachment with the modified Java files.
