I can reproduce this with Opera web browser as well as Firefox 3. It's
not just a Firefox related issue. It's happening since the 20th or 21th
from this month (October), when I did an update. It contained the kernel
update to -21. However it still happens when booting into -19.

Other flash applications (myspace music, flash games) work as usual.
Except youtube (or any video site) videos. When the video stops playing
(after 2-10 seconds) the network graph from the system monitor applet
stops showing activity, and the video no longer keeps loading.

How to reproduce:
Open Firefox / Opera. Go to a youtube video. Press play. After 2-10 seconds the video stops and also stops loading.

Firefox / Opera don't crash, so there is no backtrace.
