The full screen view appears to work fine for the one second that it stays up (e.g., the video continues to update properly), but it always exits full screen mode right after. I have tested Firefox and Epiphany and the bug occurs in both.

Their resolutions are 1920x1200 and 1920x1080. The bug happens on both monitors. I have not customized or altered the configuration of Flash in any way (e.g., no -extrasound package, no .asoundrc, etc.).
