Additional information
This only happens when using data AND in background mode. If I play a video with mobile data the audio is fine. When using WiFi the audio is fine in both cases. It happens regardless of the preferred audio format in the settings. I have no data usage restrictions on this app. It seems the audio is 48 kbps M4A or 50 kbps Opus, since I tried downloading something with those settings and it sounded just like that. I've only observed this behaviour on Youtube videos.
