 There is definitely something different going on, because firefox can stream
 this, and chrome (on windows) has no issue as well...

The split a/v is something that newer youtube-dl does on purpose, I don't think 
it's
particularly related to why chromium doesn't handle it.. Something to do with 
how the
bundled FFmpeg is compiled perhaps?
