When I launch Brave on my notebook using the default settings, I experience freezes in the browser as soon as I start playing a YouTube stream in another Brave session.
Steps to Reproduce
Start a YouTube video.
Open a new Brave profile and browse the internet.
Experience severe freezes lasting multiple seconds.
Stop the video.
The freezes stop.
Expected Behavior
I should be able to stream a YouTube video while continuing to work with Brave without any freezes or performance issues.
Same behavior with 1.65.123 Chromium: 124.0.6367.91 (Official Build) (64-bit) on fedora 40 wayland, brave://gpu reports ozone platfrom to be x11, even though its set in brave://flags to wayland.
