[mediacapture-main] Video with audio element pause after play during phone call (#869)

trouba has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-main:

== Video with audio element pause after play during phone call ==
Following [this stack overflow issue](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71407559/video-element-pause-while-phone-call/71408591#71408591), [webrtc google group discussion](https://groups.google.com/g/discuss-webrtc/c/9T0P6KftmaI) and per request of @fippo:


I've got an issue with my app and I could reproduce it on this sample: https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/content/getusermedia/record/

During a phone call, if I open a tab with a <video> with audio element, the video automatically pause (and I can see a pause event firing on the element)

This does not happen:
-  if the video element was loaded and played before the phone call start
- if the video has no audio.

My main questions are:
-  Is this a normal behaviour ? 
- can it be tracked (by an event other than the pause one) ? 
- Is there any way to know there is a phone call ongoing
- is there any way to restart the video during the phone call (element.play() works, but a pause event immediately happens) ?

To reproduce:

On a mobile (iOS or Android)
Start a phone call
Open https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/content/getusermedia/record/
The video is paused
If you manually launch element.play(), you can see the frame in the video updating, and then pause again
The record works correctly
