Why doesn't HAL work on Chrome, though? It seems Chromium (which is the default browser in Lubuntu) is becoming incompatible with more and more things online, including Google products.
On Chrome 33, this is not a HAL issue it is a Flash Plugin issue, I have managed to get Chrome to play Google Play films by:

To go:

chrome://plugins

Disable Adobe Flash Player

Enable IcedTea-Web Plugin (using IcedTea-Web 1.2.3 (1.2.3-0ubuntu0.12.04.3))- Version: 1.2.3
(If you haven't got IcedTea Web Plug you can download it from the software centre)
