1.Watch a video (Hulu, YouTube, etc.)
2.Pause video
3.Switch audio outputs
4.Confirm that other sound still works
Actual Results:  
It happened again.

Expected Results:  
The sound continued as normal.

>Watch a video (Hulu, YouTube, etc.)

You are watching a flash file and the flash plugin itself is doing the sound output and not Firefox.
Which flash plugin version is used ?
Does it work wqith other browsers that are using the flash npapi plugin like Opera, Safari, Chrome (IE is using a ActiveX plugin).

Tried it with IE and that didn't work either, I suppose it's a general error and not a browser error.
