no sound in flash....(firefox)

it seems I have no sound with flash. though flash does work and so does my sound (I tested it with the front and center thing)

I think I know what the issue is however. See the sound card I use is my pci card but by default the pc uses my integraded sound (which doesnt work....) so I set my pci card load by default and everything works fine but flash...I think that is becuase  flash loads the intel (integaded) drivers....

I had this issue before when I was new to linux in ubuntu and I solved it be reinstalling only the drivers for my ens1370 card (the pci card) and then everything worked fine but I cant seem to recreate that in arch

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
I followed that guide in ubuntu. Specifly that parts on making the pci card the default in modprobe.d
and uninstalling the default drivers and reinstalling the divers for my pci card...

also I Looked at alsa in the wiki and nothing there seemed to be related reinstalling drivers..

Welcome to forums.

Since ALSA is a kernel module now, there's no installing drivers anymore. One way to get rid of your on-board sound card now is to blacklist the modules that it used in the MODULES array in /etc/rc.conf.

pacman -R libflashsupport  solved that exact problem for me.
