Bug Description

When you go to for example youtube and click a video, the video starts playing, but you don't hear anything. The sound won't work. I'm using an up-to-date hardy amd64.
I haven't filed it against flashplayer-nonfree, because you also haven't got sound in the hardware database program, so the problem is probably somewhere else.
What information do you need from me?

I got the same problem on current daily build 20080318.1 amd64. On my system there are two sound cars (primary: Intel HDA onboard, secondary (Skype, etc...) Sound Blaster Live Value), but I don' think that's the cause of the problem, since I selected the correct device in System -> Preferences -> Audio which is working properly on usual applications like Totem, Rhythmbox etc. and I also have set the Intel card to be the default one by running 'asoundconf set-default-card Intel'.

Kind regards,
Jan

Sorry, my description was wrong, I just discovered that the headset on my secondary sound card wasn't plugged in at all, so I couldn't hear anything from it. Now I found out that the sound from the Flash plugin is always redirected to the second card, I have opened a new report about this:
