Issue/Feature
Add
eagerPlaybackglobal option to force_canPlayEventto be set tocanplay. Useful for when business logic dictates that immediate playback takes precedence over potential audio buffering.Additionally, using
canplayexposes what seems to be a Chromium bug when settingcurrentTimeon the node to the same value it's already set to. This bug is mitigated in this branch by wrapping thecurrentTimeupdate in a conditional. See this CodePen example for a demo (see theplay()function to adjust behavior): https://codepen.io/jbgomez/pen/jOYQeKQRelated Issues

Solution
Adding opt-in
eagerPlaybackglobal option. Feature is disabled by default.Reproduction/Testing
Can be observed by measuring "time-to-tune" between
eagerPlaybackmodes. When enabled, audio will begin playing relatively sooner. Test cases have been updated with the ability to set global options.Chromium bug was reproduced on Chrome in macOS and Windows 10, as well as Edge on Windows 10.
