Description of the issue:

recently i did a fresh (re)install of brave with new profile configured just for you tube.

an issues observed with the auto play toggle visibility,

  1. when i haven’t signed in with my account → i could see the auto play toggle & i can make it on or off

  2. as soon as i signed in to my account → the toggle control is gone, but the videos are playing one after another, hence i don’t have the option to stop it!

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. install latest brave browser in win 11 machine

  2. create a new profile

  3. launch you tube & play any video → the auto paly toggle control would be available

  4. signing with an you tube account → the auto play toggle control is gone

Expected result:

the auto play toggle/button/control shd be enabled/available always

Brave Version( check About Brave):

Version 1.65.123 Chromium: 124.0.6367.91 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Additional Information:

  1. didn’t have any extension installed

  2. tried with incognito mode → same outcome

  3. tried with site data clean → same outcome

  4. tried with complete history cleaning along with site data, cookies, cache etc. → same outcome

  5. tried with brave shield disabled → same outcome

  6. tried with creating new profile → same outcome

  7. till few days back, i was using the you tube in the same way, it was working as expected, due to some reason, have to do a clean re-install & then this broken controls i see

  8. tried checking some config on you tube side as well - don’t seems to have any setting/config creating this behavior

It happens to me either in my “Watch Later” list. Have you tried closing that tab and opening another one with the same list? Or another one?
