There are two completely separate issues here:

1) The webapp authentication problem is real, and works exactly as you
described. It's a trick to improve the first-time experience of the
webapps, and it's not reliable in any way. However, let's discuss it in
a separate bug report, please (we probably already have some bugs about
that).

2) The Youtube authentication problem could be caused by the Youtube scope not 
properly handling the error from the remote server: youtube receive a cached 
token from OA, which most likely is getting refused by the server, but the 
scope doesn't handle the case properly.
The proper handling of this error would be invalidating the existing token (the 
OAuth plugin has a special ForceTokenRefresh option for this case).

I don't see how this is related to UbuntuOne in any way.
