[karaluh]

Sound in Flash doesn't work after installation of pulseaudio. Everything worked before that. Kubuntu lucid, flash player from adobe, confirmed in firefox and konqueror.

Is this a clean Kubuntu install? You appear to have PulseAudio running, in which case you probably need the Qt bits updated from Maverick. Can you confirm that even direct ALSA output is inaudible? E.g.,

speaker-test -c2 -l1 -twav -Dplug:front

[karaluh (karaluh)]

Executing the above command gives lots of "Błąd otwarcia odtwarzania: -16,Device or resource busy" errors.

[Daniel T Chen (crimsun)]

What if you try this instead?

pasuspender -- speaker-test -c2 -l1 -twav -Dplug:front

[karaluh (karaluh)]

I can hear the test sounds fine.

Can you confirm that pulseaudio is acting awry *only* when Adobe Flash is used? Please use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio/Log

[karaluh (karaluh)]

Yes, I was listening to music using Amarok, playing a movie using vlc and playing some youtube movie in Firefox. From the above only Firefox didn't produce any sound. I'll attach the log file.

Please install pavucontrol, and use it to see what sink is being used for the Flash plugin.
