Not sure what you pasted in 5), but there's no cookie value, which is needed to authenticate. Are you trying to authenticate? Else there's no need for the whole process.

If you want me to debug this for you, send your copied header text to ytmusicapi@gmail.com. Else there's not much I can do to help.

No, I've used the same headers for months, even years, in the past. It might invalidate if you're signing out in the browser you got the credentials from.
