Sounds like a problem with the downloaded. Video and audio are sent separately and combined by the downloader.

Try this; https://www.dvdvideosoft.com/

MKV = Matroska Multimedia Container: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matroska

Firefox doesn't support this container format although it is similar to WebM (but not the same). I don't know why you would get this MKV format and not a more common type.

Do you otherwise have a problem with playing media files?

You can open the YouTube test page to check support in Firefox for playing HTML5 media.
