Bug Description
I used the default sound properties display of Ubuntu 14.04 to set the default output from the internal loudspeaker included in my computer (a nice touch found on a Levono tower PC) to an USB headset.
Most of the applications correctly output their sound to the USB headset, Rhythmbox for example.
There, however, are some applications that still send their sound to the internal loudspeaker, for example the Tomate application [1] and the flash plugin (inside Firefox).
