XM Radio Online will not play in Firefox 3

[DaveW]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Release: 8.04
Release: 8.04
version 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3
When trying to use XM Radion Online to stream audio (http://xmro.xmradio.com/xstream/login_servlet.jsp)
I click on the listen now (click to launch player) button.
Player launches fine.
When I select which channel to listen to, data begins transferring, the play button switches over to "play" but then immediately switches back to "stopped". No audio is heard.
I would expect the player to continue to play the XM radio stream.
