Unfortunately, I was unable to reproduce this on my x86_64 Guix system.

Starting with a fresh profile in icecat-68.12.0-guix0-preview1, I tried
watching 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6U2Un5kEdI', first using the
bundled 'ViewTube' extension (as happens with the default IceCat
configuration), and later with LibreJS and ViewTube disabled to test
Youtube's Javascript player.  I tried opening another video in another
tab while playing the first video, seeking around the file, etc, but
pulseaudio did not crash for me.

Is anyone else able to reproduce this?

Nathan: Would you like to try running "icecat -no-remote -p" and
creating a fresh new profile for testing purposes, and seeing if you can
reproduce the pulseaudio crash while using the new profile?  If not,
maybe try adding back your usual extensions to the test profile and
seeing if that makes a difference?
