Lost tab histroy on session restore

I have "Open previous windows and tabs" checked, and normally all tabs are restored correctly. However, I often have a Youtube video or playlist open, with several videos already in the history for the tab.

Case 1: On restore, the video (single, non-playlist) loses any query parameters that were added (ex: setting a time on the Youtube video so that it will be at the same point upon restore, ex: "&t=2m55s"). These parameters are added by me and the tab is requested WITH the query parameters (enter is pressed) so that the parameters are present on window (Firefox) close for the next session.

Case 2: On restore, the playlist is often set back several (2-5) videos (urls/history entries).

Could be due to an add-on the interacts with Youtube called "Enhancer for Youtube", but I have found no option or issue with Enhancer that has caused this behaviour in other browsers (Chrome).
