[Bug 229214] [NEW] No sound in flash videos

[PaulPace]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Sound in flash only works if I have no other programs running sound
output.  For example, I can have VLC, Rhythmbox and Totem Movie Player
all running with all having sound output, but there will be no sound
output from flash videos.

If I close all other sound output programs and restart Firefox, then
flash will have sound.  However, nothing else will output sound until I
close Firefox, even if I close the flash tab and have no pages open.
Usually I have to end the Firefox process after closing the window.

I have used three of the different flash players and always the same
result.  I completely uninstall the flash players in Synaptic and
install through dialog box in Firefox.
