I had this happen to me. I simply disabled ublock origin's quick filters and everything worked fine after.

One way I've found around it is to open videos in new tabs and then they play normally. Playlists or clicking in the same tab doesn't work. Then I just Ctrl+W the tabs to advance the "playlist".

So… just the video, no ads, no comments, no text at all? Please block it for me too, YouTube!
