I am running lubuntu on a Dell mini12. it was working fine until a couple of weeks ago. Now you tube videos have problems playing back sound. I've tried installing the latest flash. My browser is Firefox but it happens on Chromium too.

If you are happy to install it, Google Chrome should work because it has Pepper Flash built in. In fact, I'm using it on Lubuntu right now.– TimFeb 27, 2015 at 8:59

thanks i'll try that as a good stopgap, but would be keen to get to the root of the flash problem.– NormuFeb 27, 2015 at 9:22

I doubt you will ever get it working. Flash has not be supported on Linux for over 1.5 years.– TimFeb 27, 2015 at 9:27

Tim, I tried installing chrome but the same glitch appears. Then I uninstalled Chrome, tried to purge flash and to load Pepperflash for firefox. But the glitch is still there.– NormuMar 20, 2015 at 16:16

Could be related to the change youtube recently made to HTML5 videos by default. Early February if I remember correctly.
