Description

If the video.js script is loaded at the bottom of the page, the big play button remains visible in Firefox on autoplay videos. The play button disappears if the user pauses and presses play again. I haven't seen it in any other browsers, and if the script is loaded in the header, everything seems to work fine in Firefox.

Reduced test case with script in footer (big play button is visible in Firefox)
