Xdotool doesn't work with flash videos

Hi,
I don't know if it's a bug or not, but xdotool doesn't seems to work with flash videos.
For example open the page http://www.miniclip.com/games/bloxorz and start the game, the left key should now move the bloc to the left.
Open a terminal and type `sleep 5; xdotool key Left ', then come back to the game.
Nothing happens.

Is there a workaround to do xdotool work with the flash videos?

I already tried with different web browsers, different flash plugins, but this works nowhere.

Thank you
