[SOLVED] Chromium and Youtube: works, but not really.

Hi, recently my chromiuim decided to stop playing youtube videos, maybe the same problem that was solved here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=216463
But today, it is working again. Well, kind of. I haven't changed anything in order to fix chromium (I may have done a pacuaur -Suy), didn't apply the fix mentioned in the other thread, but it works. Sadlyit looks like this:

Applying the fix from the other thread didn't change this behaviour.
Flash is deinstalled:
pacaur -Qs flash
local/kwordquiz 16.08.0-1 (kde-applications kdeedu)
    Flash Card Trainer

Please let me know if you have any ideas on how to fix this, thanks.

/edit: I was frustrated:
pacaur -S chromium
rm -r .cache/chromium
reboot
-> problem solved o_O

I'll just try to forget this ever happened.
