bug: home feed auto caption show not working with spoof-signature-verification

Bug description

With "Spoof app signature" turned off it always shows captions in the home and subscriptions feed automatically when auto-play starts no matter if captions are turned on or off in YouTube settings. But with spoof on, if the video has auto-generated captions, it doesn't automatically show the captions, I have to click on the cc button each time (interestingly when the video has auto-generated captions, the captions then appear word by word in the feed, but with spoof turned off the captions appear whole lines at a time).

For videos whose captions are not auto-generated, if the captions are on in the YouTube settings, it does show them in the feed both with spoof on and off. With captions off in the YouTube settings, with spoof off it still shows them, but with spoof on doesn't.

Steps to reproduce

Turn on/off spoof app signature and watch an auto-playing video in the home or subscription feed. If for example the captions were auto-generated, the automatic display of the captions goes away turning on the spoof.

The behavior does not differ when the patch is toggled on or off. Leaving open for others to reproduce.

Issue is present again after the latest spoof patch changes.

It appears the CC button was also removed from the feed autoplay (and captions are turned on all the time).

Moving issue to #1752
