RE: 1.4.2 audio control, do we want to require the stop mechanism to be more discoverable?

It seems to me that Mute, though helpful, isn't the same thing as preventing autoplay. There are times when I may want to postpone, rather than mute, audio or video. Could an easy-to-discover method be added to Techniques? We already cover user control over media in WCAG 2.0.

[Jason] The Firefox version, at least, acts as a pause control. Chrome and Safari also support a mute feature, but I haven’t yet found the keyboard commands for them, if they exist. I’m searching the Web now…
