Example of multiple MPRIS players for one video

WebKitGTK is far too eager to show MediaSessions.

Opening the Youtube HomePage (https://youtube.com) will show like 8 players over MPRIS for what is actually a single video.

All of them seem to actually control the same video though often only one will have the correct metadata like title.

I've attached an example picture.

(Even if the problem is not directly related to the GStreamer backend, I still like to use [GStreamer] here to keep multimedia bugs all together.)
