No sound in Flash after Rhythmbox

(I am fully aware there are over 9000 threads about Sound in Flash, however, many of them are 64-bit issues, or they aren't similar enough to my issue to work.)

Running 32-bit Arch on a Sony Viao VGN-CR507E (Sound card is Intel, along with 90% of other hardware)
Using Alsa & Pulseaudio. For some reason, I seem to need both. Just -Syu'ed.

Have installed: (pacman -Qe | grep -i pulse; pacman -Qe | grep -i alsa)
alsa-oss 1.0.17-2
alsa-plugins 1.0.24-3
alsa-utils 1.0.24.2-3
pulseaudio 1.1-1
pulseaudio-alsa 1-2

If I play a Flash video in any browser before loading and playing music with Rhythmbox, sound works just fine.
If I listen to music using Rhythmbox first, Flash's sound is nonexistent, and no combination of mixer settings lets sound play.
This seems to possibly be a Rhythmbox issue, as Flash's sound works fine after using Audacious.
A flash video played in VLC seems to be unaffected by this.

(I'm switching to Audacious as a temporary fix until this is truly solved.)
