"Non-monetizable" means that YouTube may place ads in front of your video, provided you are in the YouTube Partner Program, and the ad revenue will go to the music rights holder. If you are interested in monetizing your videos, visit audiohub.com.

When you upload your video with audiofire music on YouTube, the platform automatically detects the use of the music. You will then see the message:

"Copyright: Copyrighted content found. The use is permitted by the copyright owner on YouTube."

This has no negative impact on your channel and is neither a Copyright Strike nor a warning. Your video is legally protected. However, monetization through advertising revenue is not possible.
