Try setting audio output to System Default rather than sel;ecting the output deivce manually in PPro audio hardware preferences.

Hi,

I also have this problem and have been working with Nvidia on it. I have a K4000 graphics card. This problem is a recent problem within the last few months. I have changed many settings on the card and have noticed that if I reload the YouTube page, it can recover from the error the first time, after that it can lose audio etc.  I also notice that after the error occurs the size of the video in the window changed and it cuts off a part of the screen.  If I restart the browser and bring up the same video it will again be in the YouTube window correctly. 

I also notice that if I am watching a video on YouTube and start Premier, the moment that Premiere starts the YouTube video will produce the same error... "An error occurred. Please try again Later. (Playback ID:" a big hashed number. with a "Learn More" that does not offer any assistance.

I tried disabling video in background.  Do you mean  the checkbox on on the playback tab in Preferences? Mine says "Disable video output when in the background'.  I disabled it  and it YouTube still behaves the same way.

Nvidia had me use a driver cleaning tool to remove their software from the system and reinstall the latest drivers doing a clean install. Did not make a difference.

Please let me know if you have any success.  I often am looking at a technique or instructional video on YouTube and going back and forth practicing the technique. Thanks for your original  post.

Any idea how you fixed it? I tried the "disable video output when in background" and it did not impact the issue.

Can you watch other YouTube videos?

Is it only with Premiere open?

My first thought is browser issue.
