How did you install Flash? the latest proprietary version of flash adobe
released supposedly fixed the issues people had with audio/video
de-synchronisation 

this is the url you need for the normal way of installing flash on
feisty:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash

it should be fixed with gutsy (the next Ubuntu release) though as the
free software flash implementation (gnash) will support flash video.
