Multi-Account Container: YouTube is stuck on "Personal Container"

Background: Whenever I open YouTube, I want it in a dedicated container. Initially, I opened it in my Personal Container, and assigned YouTube.com to open in it. However, I'm stuck in a loop with YouTube being assigned to my Personal Container now.

What's Wrong After that initial assignment to my Personal Container, I later realized that I could create a dedicated container for YouTube, so I created a YouTube Container.

To switch YouTube to open in my dedicated YouTube container, I browsed to www.youtube.com, right clicked the tab, and re-open in Container - selected YouTube. It prompted me to confirm, I clicked the "remember my decision" checkbox and the open in YouTube Container. YouTube successfully opens in my YouTube container.

However, it never remembers my decision - it always prompts me to confirm the current container (which may be no container at all) or the Personal Container. In fact when*ever* I click a YouTube link, it asks me to confirm.

It feels like YouTube is "stuck" in the personal container, and I can't get it out of this loop.

I've tried to look for docs, but I haven't found any that address my issue. Also, isn't there a way to edit assignments manually using a listing of sites and the containers they're assigned?

Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!! - David
