I am curious why this page drives coreaudiod usage even though it's not outputing any sound and hopefully not accessing my microphone:

While in Activity Monitor I noticed that coreaudiod was using 5% of CPU even though I wasn't doing anything audio related (as reference, coreaudiod is usually 0.5-1% when iTunes is active on the system where I run that). I narrowed this down to when Orion was running and then through trial and error narrowed this down to when I had this page open in a tab (not having hit play on any audio selection; front window or not).
I expected it to display the page as it does but not drive coreaudiod activity as long as no audio is playing / microphone not in use. To the extent the page is using audio, I expect it to show the speaker and/or microphone icons in the Address Bar.
