Sometimes sound doesn't play on videos embedded on websites

So sometimes when I try to play a video on a website, the audio doesn't play. The media volume is all the way up and still nothing. I've even tried restarting the phone and nothing. Other times, they play just fine. If I do a search for that same video on Youtube, it plays fine. It seems it may be an issue with Chrome though I haven't tried another browser to see as yet.
Any thoughts? Anybody else having the issue?

Trying it on another browser would be a helpful comparison. Also go to Settings>Apps>All​, select Chrome, and Clear Cache. You could also Clear Data, if all of your bookmarks are safely synced with the cloud.

Also be aware that being able to create a website isn't the same thing as being able to create a properly-working website. Some sites just don't work right. (Looking at the code behind some sites makes real web developers cringe.)
