How do I fix Flash player in Chrome 20?

Whenever I go fullscreen on a youtube video, there is a moment of static, then the controls continuously jump all over the screen, and it seems like the player is trying to center the video between both monitors (I have a two monitor system).

Never had any problems watching full screen flash videos with my dual monitor setup (same hardware) in 11.10 or 10.04. This problem only began after upgrading to 12.04.

Here is a screenshot (showing both monitors, fullscreen video on the left): (not enough reputation to embed... lame) - https://i.stack.imgur.com/Wj5YM.png

No other graphics problems on any other applications. Videos display fullscreen in firefox as expected (HTML 5 instead of flash?)

Here is some flash debug info, not sure if it's useful:

I've tried re-installing chrome with no success.

Any ideas? Thanks!

EDIT - I removed '12.04' from the title as this is a chrome / flash issue and not a problem with 12.04. See comment below for the fix (can't answer for 8 hours).

    The answer provided here worked for me (didn't find it in my first search attempts).

    http://askubuntu.com/questions/157082/how-do-i-fix-flash-player-in-chrome-20

    Essentially:

    • Type about:plugins in the URL bar
    • Click details
    • Disable flash (11.3)
    • Chrome will default to system plugin (11.2)

    This isn't a fix, it's a roll back to a version that works... but at least everything behaves as expected again.
