You can modify media.autoplay.blocking_policy from '0' to '2' to see if that makes a difference.

  • media.autoplay.default = 5 [0:allow;1:blockAudible;5:blockAll]
  • media.autoplay.blocking_policy = 2 (2:user input)
  • media.autoplay.allow-extension-background-pages = false
  • media.autoplay.block-event.enabled = true
  • media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground

Did you check your YT settings as I recall it also has a option to disable autoplay?
