Chrome + Youtube weirdness

I find things often fix themselves as soon as I ask a question on here. CUK is magic.

What I really like about youtube is you can run umpteen at once and make a fantastic cacophony. Mozart's Requiem with Start Me Up by The Rolling Stones sounds fantastic!

I've seen this happen in Chrome. I always thought it was just some graphics driver wierdness, though that wouldn't explain why it's just Chrome.

The only explanation I can think of is that for some reason chrome loses it's handle on the flash component

chrome is good but not that good, it struggles with a number of sites for me, i still have firefox as backup and don't even try solving issues anymore just switch browser (elegant solution eh?
