Hi Steve,

To make the controls visible, add this code to Customize > Additional CSS

.main-header .wp-video .mejs-controls {
    display: flex;
}

I agree the video should really be muted by default so that Chrome and Safari will autoplay the video.

The issue is that the theme uses the WordPress video function which at this present time does not have a muted parameter. This is something that people have been asking for so hopefully it will be included in a future version of WordPress.
