Safari 14.0.1 Playback Speed Issues

Is anyone else experiencing an issue with playback speed in Safari 14.0.1?

On YouTube and Skillshare, and probably other sites, when I adjust a video's speed, the visuals speed up, but the audio remains normal speed.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.1

Safari - Video Playback, fast forward, incorrect video length and no audio I am frequently encountering a bug in Safari where video is play back at a fast forwarded speed. 10min video in 3seconds. The bug is always accompanied with incorrect video length of more than 1 hour. Anyone has any insight, it is getting annoying to restart to fix it.

Weird safari bug with audio playback Hello everyone, i don't know if anyone has experienced this issue but, ever since i've upgraded to the very first public release of Monterey and onwards, i've had this safari issue going on but never got around to reporting it. I've noticed that whenever i have Safari open in the background and put my Mac on sleep, after i wake up my Mac and start playing a video on YouTube, the video plays normally but the audio of the video seems sped up by 5% or so (just enough to notice the pitch is up and the audio isn't aligning with the video). After a restart of Safari the issue disappears. Pretty strange bug...

Sound Quality When i change in playback speed in youtube video in safari then i get bad audio quality. But then i do same thing in other browser like Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome then i don't get bad audio quality. I think this is safari glitch or problem so please SAFARI team work on that and solve it and give same quality of audio as other browser.
