Steps to reproduce the problem:
Use an Intel NUC (model NUC7i5BNH) with Intel i5-7260U CPU.

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
When hardware acceleration is turned on YouTube videos sporadically stop playing after a while. Then the loading icon in the middle of the video appears and it does not continue playing any more also when waiting long time. After reloading the page it continues playing and sometimes stop playing again after few seconds.

Did this work before? N/A
