YouTube's bestaudio is typically Opus, which gets muxed into the mp4 container but cannot be decoded by Windows Media Player and some other players. Prefer the AAC/m4a audio stream during merge so the output is playable across all major OSes and players, with a fallback to any bestaudio if m4a is not available.
