disable Safari Media Keys

Hej,

I switched to a fresh installation of MacOS and thought it would be a good Idea to try Safari (Instead of Firefox/Chrome) again.


Joyfully listening music, I joined a Google Meet in Safari. Of cause it would be nice to stop the music when in a meeting - so I pressed Pause on my Keyboard. What stopped now was the Video in the Google Meet session, but the Music was still running.


Who thought it would be a "useful" Idea to control the focused App using MediaKeys? Or even the Browser at all?


Firefox/Chrome and derivates allow to disable the Media Key Support. Where can I disable it in Safari?

just did. Very sad that _that_ is the reason I have to leave safari behind. Performance wise it was a very good experience, but that "feature" annoys/angers me a lot.
