As per the summary, whenever I use flash to watch a flash-based net video in firefox (i.e. youtube) until I kill plugin-container non-flash sounds are blocked. This is the line from top (with c option): /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2/plugin-container /opt/Adobe/flash-player/libflashplayer.so 7044 plugin Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Pause quodlibet or rythmbox, haven't tried any other. 2. Open a flash-video or flash-based audio source. 3. After closing the page, plugin-container is still open. Don't know if closing firefox will close it also, it should, but it's not a workaround. 4. Strangely, mplayer still works fine while quodlibet doesn't. 5. To regain sound, I have to kill plugin-container. Expected Results: Audio should still be playable in instances when other audio sources have finished using the channel. I can play mplayer, quodlibet and other players at the same time as long as it's not flash. As a different experiment, I tried using a newer version of flash (keyworded adobe-flash-10.2.161.23_pre20100927). When I used this one, even after killing the plugin I could not regain control of audio playback. ################ # emerge --info Portage 2.1.8.3 (default/linux/x86/10.0/desktop, gcc-4.4.3,
