Videos are sometimes muted even if no ad plays #2

Greetings! Just now I noticed that a video was muted even if no ad played at the beginning.

The video it happened for me on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FApve3vF2CU

Aside from that, great extension. works wonders and I can finally support Markiplier without hearing the fucking shark dance every ad.

After checking around, it seems this happens when the video starts with an ad that for some reason doesn't play.

Edit: It also seems to screw with live streams :(

I have the same problem. The link Dyras has attached doesn't cause the problem for me currently but I have the same problem with other videos. I guess it's something to do with how each video is currently being monetised for adverts

Same. Usually with longer videos, or when I'm playing the "watch later" playlist.

If you have a working example then please to let me know. Im having a hard time reproducing this.
