Bug Description
Binary package hint: mozilla-mplayer
1. install mozilla mplayer on ubuntu gutsy
2. make sure mozilla mplayer can play mp3 streams by installing the preferred codecs (w32codecs, gstreamer0.
3. go to: http://
4. pick any dj-set from the list by clicking on an image; a new firefox window will show up in which the mplayer-plugin will be embedded. (you have to allow a popup in firefox)
5. embedded plugin should start playing musing after a short time buffering

I get the same problem with a radio-stream on http:// portal. omroep. nl/audioplayer/ radio1.
When the window where the radiostream is located loses focus, the sound stops.
However, when clicking on the minimize-button of the radiostream-window, the sound continues playing.
