I think this only happens when I'm on cellular data instead of wi-fi, but I could be wrong. I have YouTube Premium, so I'll be listening to a video using background play (start video in the app, then lock the phone), and then all of a sudden a few minutes later the video seems to just pause (the audio suddenly stops). When I unlock the phone to get back to the YouTube app, I discover the video is fast-forwarding itself at breakneck speed and I have to "grab" the play slider and drag it back to restart normal playback. Then sometimes when the phone is unlocked, the video will just freeze (but not fast-forward) and I have to drag the play slider back to another point to get it to play again.

Anyone else experience these issues?
