Bug Description

hello,

i am using right now alpha-intrepid

my problem is that when i start firefox and open a youtube video (with sound!) it works in firefox
but during firefox is running, and once started a FLV audio , audacious isn't able to play audio files (just keeps doin nothing)

vis à verse, when i firstly start audacious, and play some MP3, when i then try to open a video on youtube with firefox
the video will almost play for 2-3 seconds (until audio starts) and the the flash video hangs.

so in short i currently have to decide what todo, watching you tube videos or lilstening to audacious
if audacious hangs, a simple "xkill" of firefox is engough and music is playing

Helmut Januschka,
I am pretty sure this is actually a problem with Flash and the new PulseAudio sound server. Can you please say what version of Flash you have installed?
