I think you need libnss3 version 3.16 and up. 3.17 is now in Ubuntu 
repos för 12.04 and 14.04, but not 13.10 for instance, which has libnss3 
3.14.

Besides this I can confirm this is working quite nicely. Also the 
plug-in Flix Plus for Chrome is useful if you want to use a keyboard 
without mouse:
