Thank you for forcing me to take another look at this! I had found the  
updated info last year @  
https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?t=31287 but misinterpreted  
the change suggested.

I still had this line:
mergAVRequestMediaAccess "audio"

Because I thought this was taking care of that issue for me:
on mergAVMediaAccess pType, pGranted
    put "mergAVMediaAccess"&&pType, pGranted
    if pType is "audio" then
       mergAVRequestMediaAccess "video"
    ...
end mergAVMediaAccess

So I just needed to update my original request code to (duh):
mergAVRequestMediaAccess "video"
