The most common reason for this is that you may not be running choco from an administrative shell; make sure you start the shell as administrator before running the command.

If you already are, or that does not resolve the issue, it's possible there's an issue with the ffmpeg package itself, and it may be worth contacting the package maintainer via the links on the community repository to get it addressed.
