Description

Found while testing #2763

If you have shields down and view a YouTube video with an ad (that has a skip button), the skip button will not be shown.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Navigate to youtube
  2. put shields down
  3. View a video with an ad that has a skip button (I used https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lam-HQoNYKU)

Actual result:

no skip button on Ad

Expected result:

skip button on Ad if ad is configured to have it. confirmed in Chrome and Vivaldi that the ad does have a skip button.

Reproduces how often:

easily

I don't know what setup you're using but it is at least fixed on Windows using the Nightly build.
