Well, I've installed flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound and here is my
fuser on /dev/snd/*

~$ sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*
                    USER        PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/snd/controlC0:  bld        6328 F.... pulseaudio
                    bld        6483 F.... mixer_applet2
/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p:   bld        6328 F...m pulseaudio

No sound yet, but I'll restart firefox when I get a chance and see if
things are any better.

Thanks for the tips.

cheers,
Bruce
