Bug Description
This is not an Ubuntu specific bug, but rather a bug in the version of the alsa jack plugin that comes with Trusty (exists in any release before 1.0.28 of the plugin). Here is a bug report from the Mozilla database that describes the problem in more detail:

The basic issue is that if you use a .asoundrc file to route alsa sound through Jack Audio via the alsa-jack plugin, HTML5 sound doesn't work properly in Firefox. There are probably other affected apps as well.

I have the same problem: with qjackctl I stop jackd whenever I want to look at a internet video. Not very convenient...
