I dunno if this is a common problem amongst others that are experienced but I leave my desktop on 24/7 and typically have Firefox open with a session of many tabs, so when I come back to the box and view a flash video (this is after many hours, perhaps after work the next day or such) it pauses about 2 seconds in or so and the sound doesn't work, then a few seconds later it is like it's trying to play the sound but it does the du-du-du-du stuttering thing, it's frozen and I have to close the tab and even 5-10 seconds after that until the sound stops. I pretty much have to restart FF to get flash working right again.
I have never had probs with FF and flash but I think some recent update may have done this, not sure. I use an M-Audio Revolution 7.1 card that works perfectly in all other means (5.1, stereo upmixed to 5 channels, multiple apps using sound simultaneously, etc.). Just a flash issue here or perhaps my configuration?
TIA

That's sloppy computer usage anyway
Why not save your sessions in firefox ? That's why it's there for anyway
The day Microsoft makes a product that doesn't suck, is the day they make a vacuum cleaner.

But if they tell you that I've lost my mind, maybe it's not gone just a little hard to find...

lol I will agree I do have a bad habit about it.. and I do use Session Manager extension and am constantly saving my session, I can definitely close/reopen FF but nevertheless I would like to know if this is a flash issue or something I can configure...

I guess that is with every poor written software. If you leave it for a while, it chaches memory beyond reason. Firefox alike.
Would also recommend saving your session.

I use Opera rather than Firefox. After I use Flash I have the same problem. If I leave the computer for an hour or more the GUI freezes. Has never happened before. If I do not use Flash, I have no problems.
I have no answers.

Well that's some relief that I am not alone, bt, hehe. I suppose it's going to be closing FF and reopening until this is "fixed."

I've had the exact same issue from the day I installed Fash 10. I "solved" the problem rolling back to Flash 9

That sounds like a plan-- did you install this: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21045 ?? If so, I would just remove the flashplugin I have installed via pacman and install this right? Thanks

Nope, I installed the flash package from the extra repository. Check in your /var/cache/pacman/pkg directory if you still have the previous version and do the following :
pacman -U flashplugin-9.0.124.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
