The culprit is Clear All which will not have effect immediately so it is not Windows specific

Auditors: @bridiver, @bsclifton

Test Plan:
1. Set autoplay global setting to `Always Ask`
2. Make sure there is autoplay always allow for youtube (if not just
                                                         make one)
3. Go to any youtube video, it should be autoplaying
4. Go to about:preferences#security
5. `Clear all` on autoplay site settings
6. Go to any youtube video, it should ask you about autoplay permission
