Do you also get this problem with Chrome browser? If you are using Firefox, it uses an old flash player 11.2 which does not have full support for flash drm. Google chrome for linux comes pre-packaged with pepper-flash, a chrome-only port of the latest flash player. That one should work.

Chrome did the trick, I wish I had tried that ages ago. Both Hulu and Netflix only work with Chrome on Ubuntu for me.
