As soon as I updated this morning, Youtube videos don't play. . .at all!

Reported by disembod...@gmail.com, Sep 16 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 8798.0.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2858.0 Safari/537.36
Platform: 8798.0.0 (Official Build) dev-channel falco

Example URL:
Youtube.com, have you heard of it? It's a cute little site where people put up videos of kitties. Chad Hurley made it, but the some huge corporation bought it from him for $2 Billion and he got himself a house in Atherton with lots of plants.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to Youtube.com
2. Play any video
3. Notice that the video won't play.

What is the expected behavior?
That the videos should play, because that's what we do on Youtube. And we all need to see kitties being cute from time to time.

What went wrong?
The Youtube videos did not play. Also, Chad Hurley does not have great taste in architecture. But hey, money can't buy taste, now can it!?

Did this work before? Yes Just before I restarted to load the dev upgrade today!

Is it a problem with Flash or HTML5? N/A

Does this work in other browsers? N/A 

Chrome version: 55.0.2858.0  Channel: dev
OS Version: 8798.0.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

Hi Eveyone at Google! Eat plenty of yummy snacks, and don't work too hard! Tell Ray Kurzweil that he's going to die just like the rest of us. . .no need to take fancy vitamins in the hope of eventually uploading his consciousness to the cloud. But. . he did make really cool equipment for musicians. . .so thank you very much for that Ray!

Bernie, and the crew. . .thanks for the update with bug fixes, but how about if we get Youtube running on the Chromebooks again, okay? This is one bug I would surely be happy to pin to a board under class, had I the skills!

I tested the falco 8798.0.0 image on a Chromebook (peppy, same generation / CPU) and Youtube videos play.
