Description

Steps to Reproduce

Prerequisites: Have course with a few student enrollments and a graded assignment.

  1. As the teacher navigate to the SpeedGrader for this assignment.

  2. Select the media comment option and record a comment with spoken words, with the webcam disabled, i.e: record an audio comment.

  3. Submit the media comment.

  4. Start playing back the comment and notice that the control buttons banner doesn’t load.

  5. After closing the media player window, attempting to press play one more time brings up the controls, but they disappear immediately when you attempt to interact with them.
