There's currently a bug in react-native-video where the pause flag is ignored when the component is first loaded. You have to change pause AFTER the component has loaded.

First, make sure your this.state.pause = false. Then:

<Video
  paused={this.state.paused}
  onLoad={() => {
    this.setState({
      paused: true
    });
  }}
</Video>
