Comment (by westonruter):

 Here's a workaround plugin you can install which will allow the formal
 locale to remain active:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 add_action( 'wp_default_scripts', function( \WP_Scripts $scripts ) {
         $scripts->add_inline_script(
                 'mediaelement-core',
                 'mejsL10n.language = mejsL10n.language.replace(
 /^(\w\w+[-_]\w\w).+/, "$1" );',
                 'before'
         );
 }, 11 );
 }}}
