Description of Issue: The solution for my last post was to create a new user profile and to restart my machine. Since then It appears that the solution isn’t the new user profile, but restarting my machine. Every day when I turn my computer on and open Brave YouTube doesn’t work. But when I restart my machine YouTube suddenly works.
It’s as if shutting my computer down disables Brave’s YouTube abilities, but restarting it fixes it.
So every day I have to turn my computer on then immediately restart it.
Could you please check whether disabling brave://flags/#brave-ephemeral-storage resolves your issue?
There are ongoing issues with the aforementioned flag, and although I don’t know whether your issue is related to it, testing with disabled flag won’t hurt.
Change flag’s state back to Default if you don’t see a difference after disabling the flag.
I ran the windows audio troubleshooter and it updated my audio driver and videos started playing. Going to try shutting down and turning on to see if I still get the issue.
EDIT: That appears to have fixed this issue. It was an issue with my audio drivers not Brave. Thanks for the help though!!
