Title:
  Chromium won't play HTML5 video after 14.04 to 14.10 upgrade

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Chromium was playing Youtube videos via HTML5 browser in Ubuntu 14.04.

  I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.10 via Update-Manager.

  Now Chromium only loads the video, shows that the video is/has loaded,
  and shows the Pause button (as the video is playing).  The video does
  not actually play:  the seek bar doesn't move, video doesn't change,
  and no sound comes out.  If I manually move the seek bar, the video
  does follow.

  I have no way to debug this.  It works on other platforms.  Apparently
  Chromium is uniquely broken in Ubuntu 14.10 when upgraded from 14.04.
