Chrome doesn't allow the video to autoplay on load unless it's muted (thankfully). See the duplicate I marked for more information – Rory McCrossan May 23 '18 at 09:28

Maybe (and I repeat it: MAYBE) because of this? https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/09/autoplay-policy-changes – Matteo Ragni May 23 '18 at 09:28
