Does the system detect the applications for the flows? Can you check on the connection events? (you have to log at the end of connection to see them).

For (2) or other use cases when the application is a portion of the web application (based on the payload of the data), you have to do SSL decryption for being detected properly. Otherwise, all access to FB would be identified as generic Facebook. It could depend of the hostname of the servers used for videos or chat (different CNs used or different SNIs).
