Enable plugins for the website
plus.google.com -> click the battery icon to the left of url bar -> Allow plus.google.com to run "Google Talk" -> click "Allow and Remember"
Without this, I am getting the following error while trying to access google hangouts from gmail.
Plugin blocked Hangouts requires the Google Talk plugins to make calls. Click the unblock or allow button at the top of your browser to enable them.
