Works for me. One thing though: have you tried restarting firefox? |
| 10 |
Like Richard described earlier, a lot of legacy software |
| 11 |
ahem*flash*ahem use the OSS compatibility layer of ALSA, which |
| 12 |
sometimes results in blocking of resources between softwares. For |
| 13 |
example: if I start a phone call in skype, it locks up /dev/dsp and if |
| 14 |
an instance of Firefox is running at that time, any subsequent |
| 15 |
windows/tabs opened in Firefox would get sound on any flash movie. If |
| 16 |
I restart firefox, it works again. |
| 17 |
|

But I really don't know what the problem is on your end. |

the nsplugin flag applies not to firefox, but to programs that can |
| 25 |
plug-into firefox, like java, acroread, and such. |
