Description

Please merge into https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues/7636 - I saw that you guys were encouraging us to report specific issues, although it's worth noting that this issue has happened on multiple YouTube pages. I had to click "not a duplicate" to repeat it, though.

I purged my cache and manually updated my filters. I am running uBO version 1.51.0. The issue is occurring on Firefox version 116.0.3 (and it looks like version 117.0 is available now, and while I will try updating my browser next, I think the issue is specifically with uBO, not Firefox).

I have restarted my browser and computer several times since making those changes. I still have many of my YouTube videos getting interrupted by ads that do not show the video, but play the audio at full blast. "Skip ads" typically appears after 5 seconds, but it's still jarring and annoying.

Screenshot(s)

(Unfortunately, I clicked "Skip Ads" to get it to GO AWAY, but it appears as though others have reported and likely screencapped the issue.) Screen Shot 2023-09-01 at 8 31 13 AM
