You don't have to try to figure out what's making noise on a particular page, this Chrome extension will do the work for you.

Back in January, Google Chrome added a feature that shows which tab is making noise by displaying a speaker icon on it. This is really helpful when you have many tabs open and suddenly a video starts playing on one of them. Unfortunately, the browser doesn't tell you which element on the page is making noise, so you may still have to look for it among the ads and text.

Instead of switching tabs and manually turning off the sound, Ghacks.net recommends using a Chrome extension called Mute Inactive Tabs. This extension takes the guesswork out of silencing tabs and does it for you automatically.

Step 1: Head to the Chrome Web Store entry for Mute Inactive Tabs.

Step 2: Click Add to Chrome. When you see the pop-up confirming the install, click Add.

Step 3: To test, open a YouTube video, and then open another tab next to it. The YouTube video should pause while that tab is inactive.

Although the extension offers a convenient toggle button, it might be best to open streaming music services in another window. That way you can experience muted tabs in the main window without interrupting your tunes in the other.
