I guess it's a network problem. Can you try again with strace? For example:

strace -f youtube-dl -o '1yqfqsf1sY3sJqYt8Q.%(ext)s' -x "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDobPMUSadI" --audio-format mp3 --restrict-filenames --force-ipv4 --verbose

Hi,
I've just experienced a similar problem. I was able to download the video successfully, without any problems. Now tried to download the audio - and I'm stuck.

Output from strace

/edit: but after a (long) while, it succeeded.

When fetching MPD manifests, youtube-dl tries to connect to manifest.googlevideo.com. On your device this host name maps to 42.0.20.80. According to GeoIP, this IP is in China:

$ geoiplookup 42.0.20.80
GeoIP Country Edition: CN, China

However, AFAIK Google is blocked in China. I don't think Google will put their servers in China. Your DNS server (192.168.1.1) may be broken or polluted. Please check it.
