iOS 10 video playback stops working until reboot

I have an iPad Mini Retina, and ever since upgrading to iOS 10.0.01, a short period of use causes all video playback to stop working.

Videos in Safari, Chrome, YouTube etc. appear to cache (progress bar at the top saturates), but will not proceed to play. The first frame of a video is displayed, but solely as a static image. I am able to change the static frame being displayed by scrubbing to any point in the video, but playback will not take place.

The only thing that allows video playback again is rebooting the device (force-closing apps, locking and unlocking etc. does not help).
