It's not only Spotify. I've had the same issue with Adium notification sounds while the game was running in Safari on OS X 10.9.

Funny, the sound became all 8-bit like, so it fitted the game quite nicely. :)

It's known issue, I've to the exact same issue here on Linux, seems to be related with their Web Audio implementation.

If you can add anything to the bug listed above that would be super helpful for the chrome team :)

Here on Linux with Pulseaudio, WebAudio mutes other channels. Pretty nice actually.

I had the same problem though I was playing music with Radiant Player. However, I switched my sound output from HDMI (a Vizio TV) to my MBP speakers and it went away.

I'll also submit the above as a comment on the bug report.

Works fine for me.
