There is no sound when playing videos through Firefox-3.0 under Ubuntu v8.04

[Nick Parham]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I actually have Firefox v3.0.3 according to the synaptic package manager - even though the chooser says that this does not exist for Ubuntu.
I have seen other comments about videos having no sound when played through Firefox and that the Adobe Flash plugin might be at fault. However, I have not seen any clear explanation of how to fix this problem.
Could someone please tell me what to do to correct this bug?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest versions of Firefox 3.0 and Flash? Thanks in advance.
