Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.2
Release: 8.04
Version(firefox): 3.0.6+nobinonly
Expected: Flash 10 to work as it always has
Happened: Not working:
I was working with Flash 10.0 d20 and it was working fine until I upgraded to firefox-3.0.6 then my browser started to crash when attempting to open ANY flash on ANY site. So I checked around but nothing was related to this recent update. So I decided to try a different approach and using this url:
http://
I installed the ndiswrapper-version of 10.0 r15 via the script. Now flash is no longer crashing my browser, it's just crashing itself. I see the typical flash loading interface and then after 1 second it dies and I am left with a blank space where it was, it's just not there PERIOD. I've checked the plugins and everything seems to be in order, not sure what the deal is.
Also, to point out, Flash is working initially because I do see static flash in the browser until I attempt to activate a control (play a movie, or listen to a song) and then flash seems to die and is no longer available until I restart my browser.

I figured out what the issue was:
This is related to Bug #191027 in totem, this is how I fixed my problem:
sudo rm -rf /tmp/* and a reboot
Now pulseaudio is back up and running and flash is responsive again.
This bug can be closed as it is not an issue with firefox or flash, but pulseudio.
