BlueJeans seems to use WebRTC nowadays, so at least the demo works fine
in native Firefox 54 with User-Agent string for Linux. Native Chromium 56
or later disables WebRTC as the support was incomplete.

As for Linux version of Chrome try a regular chroot populated via
sysutils/debootstrap or sysutils/rinse. To get audio working install
alsa-plugins-oss or libasound2-plugins then copy asound.conf from
FreeBSD port. PulseAudio may need more care but Chrome is not Firefox,
so prebuilt binaries also support ALSA.

Beware of drag^W missing syscalls.
