Yea, I've tried both the Flash and HTML5 player, and I don't think I noticed much difference. And this is all using Chrome as well. Also, I notice the skipping not just when something intensive is happening in another tab, but also when another application is doing something heavy. Perhaps it's something on my machines... but whatever it is, it doesn't happen with Spotify's desktop app.
