Thanks for the report, I was able to reproduce the issue.

Note:

1. Chrome plays the correct selected short video https://www.youtube.com/shorts/zNUdXJsdym8, while Firefox plays a random shot video https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hM-9V5TzJkE
2. Selecting the same video from the list, the second time the correct video is played on Firefox.

Tested with:
Browser / Version: Firefox Nightly 107.0a1 (2022-10-09), Firefox Release 105.0.3
Operating System: Windows 10 Pro

Moving to Needsdiagnosis for further investigation.
