I don't like "start off muted". You can upload proper videos to MediaCrush, why should they be muted?

How about a little balloon thingy on the volume UI that tells you it'll be remembered?

Perhaps have a separate url for "proper" video? Or an option to turn off the mute by default (as opposed to having it turn off automatically the first time you unmute a video.)

Or just require videos with sound to click to play. It's the combination of sound and autoplay that is annoying.

Require click-to-play on video with audio is a good idea.
