Title:
  No audio from webbrowser-app in 16.10

Bug description:
  [Test case]
  Load the browser on 16.10 in either a U8 or U7 session.
  Browse to YouTube.
  Play a video.
  Notice there is no sound. Nor does the browser show in the sound menu/panel.

  TLDR: this is an apparmor confinement issue: on yakkety pulse audio
  needs write access to /{run,dev}/shm/pulse-shm*, which is being denied
  by the audio and microphone policy groups. The fix consists in
  punching an additional hole in the generated apparmor profile for
  webbrowser-app.

  [Regression potential]
  Low. As the fix consists in weakening the apparmor profile for 
webbrowser-app, the only concerns should be security-related. The change was 
ack’d by Jamie Strandboge (see comment #11 in this bug report).
  It is not anticipated that this change would make the browser’s functionality 
regress.
