Not seen anyone post it here yet, but there is a fix for the VEVO (and other) videos that won't play. It can be found near the end here.
It's not being release yet, but is easy to install manually, and it worked for me.
1) Download the patched YouTubePlayer.py from github here.
2) Copy it over your old YouTubePlayer.py in the addon directory (in ~/.xbmc/addons/plugin.video.youtube/ on linux machines, don't know where on other OSes). You might need to delete YouTubePlayer.pyc in the same directory to get it to work (not sure, but I deleted it anyway).
HTH.
