The machine I am running Kubuntu on is primarily used for streaming media like Netflix and Youtube, watching files off of a shared server and downloading media.
I decided to try to install Netflix first since it is something I use quite often. I am engrossed in watching the first season of Orange is the New Black and the last season of The West Wing.
Again, I resorted to Googling exactly what I am looking for and came across this fantastic post.
I opened a Terminal instance in Kubuntu and literally copied and pasted the text from the link above.
After going through these motions, I had a functioning instance of Netflix! Woo hoo.
So I decided to throw on an episode of Orange is the new Black, it loaded perfectly…. without sound.
Well shit! I never even thought to see if my audio driver had been picked up… so I guess I should probably go ahead and fix that.
Did you have any issues with your taskbar not going away when you went into fullscreen mode?

No issue at all. It runs beautifully once installed. The only thing I find is that when I have launched the Netflix desktop, I have to exit out before I can use my desktop.
I think there is a windowed mode as well if you want to run it that way instead.
Hey!
What have you done about the sound?
I have the same problem
