Apple does not make the YouTube application.

Apple does not provide the YouTube service or website.

Any fixes will have to come from Google.

Contact Google support so they are aware of the issue and can investigate it.

Check for app updates, then contact Google YouTube support.

While this may or may not be an iOS or a YouTube app bug, Google is in the best position to fix the bug, work around the bug, or report the bug to Apple.

Same issue here, the tone of the sound and voices on YouTube videos has been different since the update as if there's a speed issue and the ends of sentences in dialogue get cut off or even sped up. This has been happening since the tvOS 27 update
