Firefox buffering (and some other applications, no doubt) doesn't
interact well with short high bit-rate videos.
As this are both almost 5mbit/sec, this is probably the cause of the
problems here.
The problem is only replicated on Linux though, the videos work fine
for Firefox on Windows (going only by the responses in this thread -

disabling pulseaudio will work around this collection of issues on
ubuntu.
If the problem lies with bugs in packages or drivers in the user's
system, how can we do anything about it?
