If you're using the WebKitGTK+ libraries which come with your distro, the odds 
are that MSE is not enabled. You would need your own version with the right 
build flags.

Run the YouTube Conformance tests[1]. If the first bunch of tests is red, then 
there's some problem with the MSE support. If they're mostly green, then check 
again your JavaScript code. Each of these JavaScript lines should return true:

  MediaSource.isTypeSupported('video/mp4; codecs="avc1.640028"');
  MediaSource.isTypeSupported('audio/mp4; codecs="mp4a.40.2"');

Have into account that we only support mp4 with h264 video and mpeg or aac 
audio. Webm with vp9 and opus is currently not supported.

Cheers.
