[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 29760] Re: Sound does not work properly in Flash in firefox

[era]

So what is the status of this now?

I have Edgy, flashplugin-nonfree (as far as I can tell, this now
installs Flash Player 9), no esound-clients, no ALSA dmix hack, libesd-
alsa0 installed automatically (I presume because flashplugin-nonfree
Recommends: it, perhaps others too) ... and I still experience
intermittent problems with Flash sound in Firefox. It seems that some
time after I have visited YouTube or other Flash video sites, sound is
hosed. I have been unable to pin this down exactly; my recollection is
that occasionally the sound would simply stop working between two
YouTube videos.

I was pointed here by a comment in /etc/firefox/firefoxrc (see also bug
#94392 ...) while attempting to solve these problems. By default my
FIREFOX_DSP="none" and the comment warns about changing it to "auto" or
"esd" but I went ahead now and  changed it to "auto" anyway. Is that
comment still topical and correct? So far, things seem to work for me,
although I have not stress tested anything yet.
