This is getting very frustrating. As I've said, sound works as user "ernie" in |
| 2 |
all apps except flash.I have sound in flash as root, so the plugin is there. |

# find / libflashplayer* 2> /dev/null | grep libflashplayer |
| 5 |
/home/ernie/Desktop/install_flash_player_9_linux/libflashplayer.so |
| 6 |
/home/ernie/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so |
| 7 |
/home/ernie/.netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so |
| 8 |
/usr/lib/nsbrowser/plugins/libflashplayer.so |
| 9 |
/opt/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
# ls -l /home/ernie/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so |
| 12 |
-rwxr-xr-x 1 ernie users 7040080 Mar 23 |
| 13 |
22:02 /home/ernie/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I have device permissions set up properly unless libflashplayer.so uses some |
| 16 |
device I don't know about. /dev/sound/* are all root:audio and "ernie" is in |
| 17 |
the audio group. I guess this is obvious because all other audio apps work |
| 18 |
fine as "ernie". I've been racking my brain and searching for info, but I |
| 19 |
can't get this working. Please, someone help me out here. |
