[Bug 1415107] [NEW] Video stream for youtube videos doesn’t play on mobile devices

 

Public bug reported:

This seems to be a fairly recent regression, most likely due to a
server-side change on m.youtube.com.

On mobile devices (reproducible both on a Nexus 7 running vivid-proposed
and a krillin running 14.09-proposed), playing a youtube video plays
back audio only, not video.
