Having the same problem using the talk/hangout plugin on 2 computers running
openSUSE x86_64.
On both computers, the plugin worked well with openSUSE 12.3. But since
updating to openSUSE 13.1 the plugin won't start up anymore.
Both computers have a webcam. But on one computer the webcam is external. When
the external webcam was detached, Hangout also worked with openSUSE 13.1. But I
was alone in the hangout session, so there was any video rendered on the screen
(neither from my webcam or a chat partners one). So it could ether be the
webcam itself or the video rendering, which crashed the plugin.
Tested with Chromium and Firefox.
Found a workaround:
Get a 32 bit Firefox.
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
and use the 32 bit talk plugin instead of the 64 bit version.

Tip:
Run Firefox with
/firefox/32bit/dir/firefox -ProfileManager -no-remote
By this, you get a second Firefox instance and you don't have to close your
normal 64 bit Firefox (you'll have to create a second profile in the
profilemanager that comes up).
