Bug Description
1) Ubuntu 9.04 Development Branch
2) Firefox 3.0.8+nobinonly
3) Expected: Flash videos play with proper audio.
4) What happens: Flash video plays the first 5-10 seconds and then the browser crashes. This problem occurs on multiple websites (hulu, bbc, etc.). Here is the terminal output from a crash:
