Bug Description
Binary package hint: adobe-flashplugin
I can open Pandora in Firefox 3.5, but whenever I click the buttons, the clicks don't register, and the flash UI seems unresponsive to any actions. I've tried multiple times, restarting Firefox, rebooting, and reinstalling the flash plugin. This issue appears as a thread in the forums, and reinstalling the flashplayer plugin was suggested, but this had no effect, and the problem is still present.
I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 x86_64 with the 32-bit flash player plugin. Here are the version details from about:plugins in Firefox:

Note, to workaround, right click once on the flash player to bring up the context menu and then double-click on the button you want to activate. Seems to workaround the issue most of the time for me.
