It seems to have been a problem with sound. The videos didn't play at
all, but once I configured pulseaudio for multiple users (enabling sound
for the Flash Player user):
http://billauer.co.il/blog/2014/01/pa-multiple-users/ it just works.

You can use pam_supair: https://github.com/sfindeisen/pam_supair PAM
module for a quick su (without a password).

BTW does anybody know how to configure pulseaudio for multiple users
using UNIX sockets (instead of TCP sockets)?
