I can confirm the same issue on my system fully up-to-date Hardy install. Navigating away from a page with flash content (usually Youtube) causes the browser to crash, reporting a segmentation fault. Attempting to view three or four videos successively on Youtube is usually enough to trigger a crash.

Installing Michael's modified package and removing libflashsupport seems to have eliminated these crashes completely; we need to investigate a way to get flash working with pulseaudio without this issue.
