Do you mean that the video doesn't auto start and each time you change from Pause to Play the controls don't react, and does it hang?
Do you have the latest flash version and have you also tested this in safe-mode and with a new profile?

This bug has had the CLOSEME tag for several weeks and the date in the tag is
far gone. If the reporter can still see this issue, Please retest with Firefox
3.6.x or later and a new profile
(http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles). Then please remove the
closeme tag in the whiteboard, mark the bug against the proper version and
comment on the bug.
