No audio while tab casting with Chromecast and Chromium
I just got my Chromecast and it rocks, but I can't seem to get it to play audio while tab-casting from Chromium. When using the direct cast options like youtube it works fine, and when I use other computers it also works fine, but on this laptop running Ubuntu and Chromium I get no audio. Kind of sucks because I'm really hoping to use spotify's web client to stream spotify to my living room, which was one of the main reasons I got Chromecast in the first place.
Has anyone else come across this problem? Any suggestions?

Same problem. Chromium on Ubuntu 13.10. Chromecast extension will send video, but not audio.

It appears that it's related with the HDMI port on the TV. I had this problem and at first I solved it turning off my home theater, so that the audio would come from the TV's speakers. Then, after reading this post I tried using the HDMI extender and now I get the sound from my home theater.
I hope it helps.
