Solution 1:

It looks like your video is autoplay and muted - there is a known issue which is addressed in one of the later Safari release which may addresses this [my bolding]:

Media

  • Fixed autoplay muted videos not playing when outside the viewport
  • Fixed HTMLTrackElement behavior to match standards
