I have seen this issue as well. What I have found is that if I clicked outside of the main chat area/frame i.e. in the YouTube window itself and then clicked back on the text entry box I was able to enter text. There does not seem to be any rhyme or reason why this is happening in FFox 57.0.1

Only common extension is UBlock Origin.
