Ok, but your sample is not a real life sample...
This is a similar issue open (I cannot find it currently) when you refresh to rapidly the <Video the player stuck with a black screen. I suspect this is the same issue.
Can you clarify if this is happening if you increase the timer (10sec for exemple) and / or if it causes a player reload ?

@wolfxpertlab you should have a look to this discussion: #2984
But I think you will need to switch on V6.0.0-alpha to support the correct player release when video is outside of the screen
