Mac Pro (2013)
OSX El Capitan
All the latest software updates.

For some reason Chrome is having issues playing media from YouTube, Vimeo, Soundcloud. The longer I let it sit on these pages I get the OSX dialog "Page Unresponsive" at which point I have to kill the window.

Everything works fine in Safari.

I've tried disabling all my chrome extensions. I've tried removing Chrome entirely and reinstalling. I've tried updating Shockwave/Flash. AND.. wait for it...I did a complete format and clean install of El Capitan after which YouTube worked in Chrome, but 10 minutes later did not. I thought it might be something to do with my Chrome settings saved in my google account, however, I have Chrome on my Mac Book Pro, signed in with my google account, and have none of these issues.

Has anybody had this problem and resolved it?
