Description of the issue:
As the title says, When I listen to YouTube Music that has a video on, e.g., https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=lp-EO5I60KA, if I put it to background (by locking the screen, or go back to home screen, the music stops. AND whenever I go back to Brave, the music automatically resumes.

When I play a music without video, e.g., https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=fdz_cabS9BU, things work perfectly fine. The music continues playing when I put it to background. If I paused the music, and go back to Brave later, it won’t automatically resume

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=lp-EO5I60KA in Brave iOS
  2. Go back to iPhone home screen
  3. The music stops, instead of continues playing in the background

Expected result:
The music should continue playing in the background

Brave Version( check About Brave):

Ya, I have that enabled. It plays other YouTube music in the background perfectly fine as long as the music doesn’t come with video. e.g., https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=fdz_cabS9BU plays fine for me, but https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=lp-EO5I60KA doesn’t
