Running 59.0.3071.109 on three different systems, two with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and one with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. All three systems now find the Chromecast device but Chromium randomly crashes and exits on both 16.04 systems and runs normally on the 14.04 system. If I change the 'load media router component extension' setting in Chromium from default to disabled on the 16.04 boxes then the crashes go away but I don't find the Chromecast device. It definitely seems to be related to casting being enabled. Anyone else seeing this behavior?

This used to work with the previous chromium version. Also, google-chrome-stable 53.0.2785.101-1 works fine on the same box, so the issue is with the chromium update.
