Youtube crashing after skipping to unbuffered/not yet loaded sections #3695

Describe the bug
Youtube videos crash after skipping/reaching a section that has not been loaded.
This ONLY happens on the youtube.com website, an embedded youtube video (as in duckduckgo -> Video) will load like normal, and you can skip ahead. Only the video crashes, the website itself stays functional.
This seems to be a youtube-only issue, as videos on twitch or reddit are normal.

Steps to reproduce the issue
This happens any time I skip ahead in a youtube video

I have

  • installed Nyxt through various methods (arch repo, AUR, flatpak, .tar)
  • installed the gstreamer dependencies
  • updated my system

Information

  • OS Name+Version: EndeavourOS
  • Installation method (Flatpak, Guix, package manager, build from source): Flatpak, but it did not work on any of the above
  • Output of Nyxt command show-system-information:
    [20:39:00] Loading "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dm1AUToEW7I".
