flashplugin[solved]

Hello, I've been having an issue with flashplugin on Arch, it only appears to be doing this on Arch, I've tried it on Ubuntu, and OpenSUSE, those two don't do it.  I can go to youtube.com/ watch a video, minimize Firefox, and I can still see the video on my Desktop and in Konsole too, there's no error reports or bugs, oh, also it does it in Cafe World on Facebook too,  so not sure why it's doing this..  I just tried it again today, it appears they did an update to Youtube, figured maybe the issue was solved, does it every time, I even killed the process in the System Monitor program, I could still here the video, anybody else having this same issue?  My username is in the audio,video group, it's still puzzling me why it's doing it, they've made, I don't know how many updates to flash player from adobe, and it still didn't seem to make any difference.  Thanks, .

Don't get it, how would these solve the problem?
