User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0 SeaMonkey/2.32.1
Build ID: 20150204202218

Steps to reproduce:

Open
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw
using
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0 SeaMonkey/2.32.1
with installed Adobe Flash plugin (!)



Actual results:

Video playing via flash plugin

Directly playing as HTML5 was only possible after manually requesting the HTML5 player via https://www.youtube.com/html5



Expected results:

Video playing as HTML5 per default
I reported to Google about this issue via right click on the (flash) player and "Report Playback Issue"
