Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

I am using the Adobe Flash plugin in Firefox, and when I try to play youtube videos, I can't use the seek bar. None of the buttons are active either; I can't pause playback. This is now a pretty important problem as I have to take a defensive driving course to dismiss a traffic ticket, and I cannot play the videos in the course. The problem is not specific to youtube.
