Reddit videos and spotify web player don't play when shields are up

Description of the issue:
I can’t get reddit videos and spotify web player to play. I installed Windvine and yes, I can login into spotify now, but it doesn’t play the songs - they get stuck at 00:00. The same happens on reddit, because the videos won’t play at all.

But if I put the shields down, all of these work.!

Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary):

  1. Go to https://www.reddit.com/r/nonononoyes/comments/9i5myc/i_think_i_can_i_think_i_can/ and try to play the video with shields up
  2. See that it won’t play and disable shields
  3. See that the videos play
  4. Go to https://open.spotify.com/track/4YsFuYyDwfDrUl6bSL6g8H and try to play the song with shields up
  5. See that it won’t play and disable shields
  6. See that the song plays now

Reproduces how often:
The issue happens every single time when the shields are up.
