Board Game Arena

I often open a table and go surfing on other websites, in other tabs, waiting for players to come by.

However, when people join the table or talk to me, I can’t hear it, because the sounds do not play when I am on another tab, which is really annoying, as it keeps people waiting and sometimes they leave, thinking I am not here.

How can this be fixed?

I am using Chrome.

Tried opening an additional instance of chrome?

This works fine in Firefox; sounds play even if you're not on the tab.
