MSNBC Flash video full screen behavior with two monitors

[benbloom]

There are several factors at play here, and the only website I can replicate the problem is MSNBC (does not occur on Hulu or YouTube)
first, my setup
Kubuntu: 11.10 (64bit)
Firefox: 8.0
Flash: 11,1,102,55 (64bit)
Dual head video card (nVidia using free, built in drivers NOT nVidia proprietary drivers)

if I click the "full screen" button in the video that's playing it plays on the left monitor only (regardless of which screen I'm in). it also positions the video so that it's half way cut off by the right edge of the screen as though it is trying to spread it across the entire horizontal width of both screens. I have reported this to MSNBC, as I suspect it is a problem with their code, but I thought I'd submit it here as well for verification. if you can replicate the issue and also believe it's a MSNBC issue can we try to get them to fix it?
