- [X] I've checked that all provided URLs are playable in a browser with the same IP and same login details
- [X] I've searched [known issues](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/3766) and the [bugtracker](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues?q=) for similar issues **including closed ones**. DO NOT post duplicates

### Region

_No response_

### Example URLs

https://www.epidemicsound.com/sound-effects/tracks/2f02f54b-9faa-4daf-abac-1cfe9e9cef69/

### Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood

Epidemic sound had an update with their sound effects where the url are of a different pattern than the previous one. (i.e. _/sound-effects/track/_ instead of just _/track_)

### Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem

- [X] Run **your** yt-dlp command with **-vU** flag added (`yt-dlp -vU <your command line>`)
- [ ] If using API, add `'verbose': True` to `YoutubeDL` params instead
- [X] Copy the WHOLE output (starting with `[debug] Command-line config`) and insert it below

### Complete Verbose Output
