Anybody else got the auto-playing music? For a while couldn't figure out where it was coming from, then I saw the red sign for the new Priority Inbox and at first selected "No thanks" but that did nothing, and not until I accepted to turn it on did the music stop.
A bug? or some Google's programmer idea of being "helpful" or "funny"? I did not appreciate it.
- DrewHintz 16y agoWhat browser are you using?
- tremendo 16y agoGoogle Chrome 5.0.375.125 beta on Ubuntu Lucid
- barmstrong 16y agoYep I encountered it too (using Chrome on mac). Looks like it was a bug. Pretty funny though. There is probably some programmer getting seriously heckled right now in a late night hackathon over at Google. Wonder if they've broken out the drinks yet.
- imrehg 16y agoHad the same thing. Seems like enabling it in another browser will disable the ad, so you can go back using Chrome. Haven't tried disabling afterwards to see whether the ad comes back, though... I seriously thought my account been hacked and someone's playing a practical joke on me...
- studer 16y agoThere's a pinned answer over at their support forum, so it's not just you: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/label?lid=613f70d9ff743c86 http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/label?lid=613f70... Didn't they do something similar with the Pacman thing? Sounds like they don't have enough computers with working speakers...
