[Bug 1309426] Re: Grooveshark webapp loads the Flash version of website instead HTML5 "Problem Loading Flash"

 

As far as I saw, it seems to be a problem with the webapps reading the
latest settings from the browser or whatever. After intial install of
14.04, flash does not seem to work. I had to install the extras package
to get it to work. At this point, webapps were still reporting that no
flash is present, although it works in the browser. I was lanuching the
webapps with firefox as the default browser. With firefox, I could not
get the apps to work with flash at all(not only YT, but also
grooveshark). With Chromium+ unity-chromium-extension+pepper Flash I did
get the webapps to recognize flash after a painful procedure of purging
flash+webapps and manually deleting all of their leftover files from ~/.
Since that worked out, I've been trying to do the same with firefox, but
now I broke it and can't either recover it to work with chromium nor
firefox :)
