Yes, that's the current behaviour, see #755 for more info, if the list parameter appears on the url it's extracted as a playlist. For fixing it you just need to drop it, for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSAlj04_tkA&list=PLVe-2wcL84b8T9aw7AaAj-Kir3CKABg55&index=7would become http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSAlj04_tkA, or just TSAlj04_tkA.
I'm closing it since in the isssue linked is where it's being discussed, thanks for the report!
