plyr: [V3] muted attribute is not working

Expected behaviour

<video muted autoplay> should play the video with muted audio.

Actual behaviour

plyr.js does not respect the muted and does not mute the video.

Environment

Browser: Firefox 58
Operating System: Ubuntu Linux
Plyr: 3.0.3

They won’t if you’ve previously set the muted state and have it in local storage. Obviously the users settings overwrite the defaults. Try clearing your plyr local storage key.

hey I have resolved this issue with little simple steps

const player = new Plyr('#player'); player.muted=true; player.play();

Try this:

var api = new Plyr(element, {
    muted: true
});
api.on('ready', () => { 
    api.pause();
});

Sorry this must be a regression somewhere. Should be a quick fix.
