Steps to reproduce the bug

Go to any video from YouTube
Attempt to play it

Expected behavior

Video doesn't play. First time it opens the media player, attempts to load, fails, pop-up message directs to check push notification while the video only shows the thumbnail with the "Play" icon. Pressing the play icon again yields the same result.

Additional information

This same error happened in the previous version of New Pipe, apparently because YouTube placed obstacles for third party tools. This version fixed it for me, but only for some days until the issue returned. In case it's relevant, GrayJay still works, and New Pipe can still reproduce music from Bandcamp. Thanks for your efforts.
