If you're using Compiz Fusion, turn off "Unredirect Fullscreen Windows" in the General section and turn off "Legacy Fullscreen Support" in the Workarounds plugin. If you don't, the controls for the player get cut off.We've found the settings above in our Gnome desktop > System > Preferences > Advanced desktop effects > General options. Turning both settings off solved the problem for us.
