Not sureif this issue is even related to the S6 itself, but I got no response in the Facebook area. On my S6, if I view a webpage from a link I'm Facebook, any YouTube videos embedded in the page don't work. Once again click play, it acts as if it is loading, but never does. Yet, if I open the same page directly via Firefox or Chrome instead of via Facebook, the YouTube video will play normally. With my old DNA, it doesn't matter how I get to the YouTube video, it plays regardless.

Check to see if you have the most current version. If you do, first try clearing the app storage cache.

Then try removing and reinstall.

Before clearing the cache and app data I tried it again on wifi and on LTE it and it started randomly working again after repeated fails over the course of a week and a half.
