279200 - Sound doesn't work in flash plug-in

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041201 Firefox/1.0

I've been trying to view the flash movies at http://www.homestarrunner.com, and
at several other sites, and sound won't play on my copy of firefox.  I'm using
ALSA, and sound works just fine under xmms, which reports that it's using the
ALSA driver.  I can't find anywhere to set the driver under firefox, but I might
not have found it right.  I tried closing xmms and restarting firefox, and that
didn't help, so it's not a duplicate of bug 265200.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open firefox
2. Go to www.homestarrunner.com





I was using the default theme.  I'm using KDE.

Might be a dupe of bug 220035. Check to see if you are running the service that
is mentioned in that bug.

This bug seems to have fixed itself.  I'm sorry for the comparatively unhelpful
bug report, and for not keeping this up-to-date.  Recommend Close:Worksforme.
