So my phone (galaxy s5, att) went through the software update yesterday, and since then the audio quality on my YouTube app is linked to whatever video quality is set on.
This was not an issue before, as I could set the video quality to 144p and the audio would still come through clean. This is useful when I'm not interested in watching the video, and only want to hear the music, for instance.
I contacted the people at Google play store, tested YouTube quality changes out on my laptop, and confirmed that I'm only having this issue on my phone. So if it's not the app (which was working fine 48 hours ago), it has to be connected to the android software update.
If I degrade the quality of a video, it reloads the entire video. It used to dynamically step down the video quality, without interrupting the audio, while keeping the audio quality the same.
Am I the only one experiencing this? Anybody know of a way to desync audio and video quality on the YouTube app? Would reverting back to the previous software version solve this? Is that possible to do?
