It works fine here. Just to verify, you have looked into Tajemnicza przesyłka i tylko 72 godziny-j1cL23iJSqg.mp4, don't you?
Could you post the output of ffmpeg -y -i 'Tajemnicza przesyłka i tylko 72 godziny-j1cL23iJSqg.f136.mp4' -i 'Tajemnicza przesyłka i tylko 72 godziny-j1cL23iJSqg.f140.m4a' -c copy 'Tajemnicza przesyłka i tylko 72 godziny-j1cL23iJSqg.mp4' (or with avconv if you don't have ffmpeg), that's the command youtube-dl runs.

There's already an open issue about removing the dash files: #2108.

By the way, are you really running youtube-dl as root?, if so, I would highly recommend you not doing that.

how can I create the special user for youtube-dl and use it with Apache on Ubuntu?

Run the command printed in the output of youtube-dl https://youtube.com/watch?v=j1cL23iJSqg -f 136+140 --verbose, in my case it uses ffmpeg, but in ubuntu it probably uses avconv:

running that command provides:

and when I copy&paste that, I'm getting the same result - 804KB output file with the sound only.

I see now that the problem is common and i'm not the only one affected by it:
https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/1809

I tried to update my avconv to 10.1 and it seems working now, however I'm not sure if I did it correctly.. but i hope i won't have problem with it.
