Alsa-lib is already in precise since I jumped the gun a bit, so any issues you find can be filed in launchpad against alsa-lib. Please test alsa-utils, and file a bug in launchpad with your issue, noting the version of alsa-utils in the description.

Looks like it broke flash audio. Worked around it by creating 
/etc/asound.conf that looks like:

pcm.pulse {
     type pulse
}

ctl.pulse {
     type pulse
}

pcm.!default {
     type pulse
}

ctl.!default {
     type pulse
}

Then restart the browser.

Thanks to Palo for providing the workaround.
