YouTube video playback speed setting not working

I cannot change the playback speed on YouTube recently (about a week). Videos play without issue but using the option to change playback speed does not affect the speed.

Is it a Firefox problem or a YouTube problem? Anyone else experiencing this?

Hello,

I don't have that problem (see screenshot), so I'm afraid that it's something on your end.

Maybe an add-on that's causing this (if you have any add-ons, that is) ?

I can display the menu, it is the actual playback speed change that doesn't work.

Are you on Linux, Mac or Windows? I am using Ubuntu Linux.
