I have had a similar problem since a couple of months (since 
F24ß was released?).

I don't use Chrome enough on a regular basis to be able to 
confirm, but Firefox is stricken. I'll decide to play some 
videos on YT using Firefox and there is no sound. I open 
other tabs and try. Typically, nothing. Rarely, this appears 
to fix the problem. Sometimes, I open VLC and play a video 
stored on my computer. This appears to be the most reliable 
solution for me. Perhaps a logout/in.

I've always managed to get it working without rebooting, but 
it takes a lot of fiddling. I have no idea what causes it and 
there are no clues that might suggest a culprit.

There is this report:

I haven't tried the suggestion about modifying asoundrc.

There is a similar report on archlinux (I find them to be a 
pretty reliable bunch of guys that have lots of information 
that has helped me out a lot with problems).
