Random video chat, however, was first started by Chatroulette later on in November 2009.

I read the Ubuntu documentation on webcams and it mentioned changing the way Skype launched to solve this problem: I tried this with no apparent change in behaviour in Skype.

Perhaps the difference is that I ran Cheese and have not turned off the power.

I have looked over the supported and unsupported webcam list and this EXACT model isn't shown.
Omegle is arguably the first site to popularize random (aka roulette) chatting as we know it today.
It started out as random text-only chat room when it was created back in March of 2008 by Leif K-Brooks.
