Google has acknowledged a "glitch" in their YouTube code that caused this. There is NOTHING you can do to Flash Player about it. They are working on a fix for it this week, but you have to manually set volume in the meantime.

From Google:

Thanks for your patience, all. We have been aware of this issue. It should be resolved soon.

The mute will keep coming back for each video you watch, but you can get your sound back each time by pausing the video, right clicking the little X by the speaker symbol and then clicking the speaker symbol itself.  Then start the video again.  Kind of a pain, but at least you can hear the videos until the problem is fixed.
