Bug Description

Hulu reports error 3302. This does not happen for all titles, only some which use Flash DRM. The Flash plugin downloads and installs the library/module/plugin/whatever it needs, but it fails to load because of apparmor.

$ dmesg

Can you still reproduce it? This bugs is rather old. Maybe you could try on latest Ubuntu 17.10 daily build virtual machine, for example?
