Using hardened Firefox and uBlock Origin I thought I'd be able to avoid the Advertising Menace for the rest of my days.
Now I'm getting this. I can hear the ad just not see it. I hate the antichrist.
Is there any known way of getting around this outside of downloading every video I want to watch? I use both Linux and Windows so preferably something that works for both.

had a similar thing happen:

In the apparent quest of endlessly getting worse, seems YT may have made new BS: playing an audio ad on a channel video listing.

(I got this audio ad playing that advertised something about some internet company.)

update:

Another audio ad: you know how you can play a video in a playlist in a small picture-in-picture, while looking at the playlist?

Just had such a video go black with an audio ad for some other internet thing play. Then a little popup notice pushing Premium.

Happened again. When starting a vid, it was juat a black screen with an audio ad. Refreshing fixed that, but it's still annoying. I don't like "normie crap" pushed on me.

Did you update the filter list for uBlock as @Miller suggested? That worked for me.
