Comment:

 Hi @kangahealth! I can't duplicate this bug on a clean instance of
 WordPress using either the direct link embed (i.e. just a standard URL) or
 using the Youtube embed and I'm going to close the ticket.

 Sorry about your experience: If I had to guess, it's probably likely
 related to a plugin or theme you're using. On a per-video basis, or in
 your video embed scripts inside a plugin or theme, you could turn on the
 {{{?cc_load_policy=1}}} query string that Youtube gives yo you to force
 captions on:
 https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameters#Revision_History

 Working example:
 {{{<iframe width="560" height="315"
 src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/o0X0YFP6DoQ??cc_load_policy=1"
 frameborder="0" gesture="media" allow="encrypted-media"
 allowfullscreen></iframe>}}}

 You may also consider looking at whether {{{branding}}} has been turned
 off on your video embedder because sometimes that makes it harder to use
 captions and subtitles.
