Twitter's code is so unnecessarily complex. I could just get the video element
and do video.volume = 1 right? But nooo the twitter (sorry, X) engineers had
to create the AudioElement within pure JS. So the only way I found to access it
was to use the "m" hotkey to toggle mute. It isn't 100% reliable though. I
couldn't manage to trigger the click event.
