Adobe Flash settings non-clickable unity3d not unity2d

[Evertjan Garretsen]

The Flash plugin does not respond to clicks when running in Unity3d. Right clicking also function very buggy. I have to click several times 4 - 10 time before a context-menu apears. I've installed the offical Adobe Flash plugin. A lot of people are experiencing this problem when looking for help in fora. Some say it's a regression and that it did work in Ubuntu 11.10. I cannot confirm this.

The problem occurs in Google Chrome and Firefox, though in Chrome i did not get a settings panel at all. According to others this prolem also exists in Chromium, but i've not tried this.

When signing in with Unity2d i am able to right click -> go to settings and change the settings in the flash settings panel.

As you will know Adobe stopped upgrading Flash Plugin for linux, but i fear that there will not be any cross-browser sollutions for video and audio chatting in the next few years.

I also think this is not an Adobe problem, for what i've read in the fora. Manypeople say this occurs whenever using a dock. An serveral people suggested switch to Unity2d solved the problem. It als did in my case. But this is not a good sollution in my opinion because you loose the advantages of the Unity3d dock.

Some people suggested running 64 bit ubuntu also works, i only have a production machine, so i'm not able to try this.

Please look at this. Flash camera an audio support is to important for general users to be buggy or non-functional.
