[Bug 249817] [NEW] Adobe Flash player 10 in Firefox 3 has problems with sound

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After some random time from starting Firefox it is no longer able to
play flash sounds correctly. For example trying to watch a YouTube movie
results in the video pausing a second or so into the playback. After
about half a minute the video resumes and a stuttering sound appears
(sound buffer looping over the first second or so of actual soundtrack).
Scrolling controls work fine and the interface is responsive. Stuttering
sound continues through the whole movie occasionally changing to some
random 1-second sample of the soundtrack.

OSS is not loaded. Neither esound nor pulseaudio daemons are installed
or active.

During the hang other applications have no problems playing the audio so
the device is not locked. Even aplay works.
