Looking in to this it appears that this bug is happening because the video element is display:none right up until the "play()" function is called on the video. The bindings are not attached to the video at this point, and so the code for the "play" event is not getting hit. To prove this, the browser debugger never hits the "play" event handling at http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/content/widgets/videocontrols.xml#508. After the video begins playing and has subsequently been paused, calling videoElement.play() from the Web Console does hit my breakpoint and removes the play button. A simple band-aid approach would be hide this.clickToPlay in the "timeupdate" event handler if !this.video.paused.

I'd say setupInitialState() should take of this -- it's already responsible for handling other stuff where the video might be doing things before we've attached.

I think the issue was happening after setupInitialState. In setupInitialState, all the controls are still hidden. This patch stops the original fade in from happening in the case that the video is already playing.
