If I enable cookies I can't change Youtube video quality (flash player goes black and freezes), but if I disable them then I can't sign in.

Only started getting this problem a day or two ago.

I've noticed other people getting this problem, and disabling cookies does allow me to change video quality, but I need to be able to do so while signed in to my Youtube (Google+) account.
