[Solved ]Firefox - how to change audio playback device for flash

Hi,
I have such setup: speakers + TV connected by hdmi. I only use TV to watch movies (audio from moves is played by tv speakers) and speakers for regular computer use.
I had everything working properly, till yesterday.
Now all audio from flash (firefox, plugin-container) is played by TV speakers. But other firefox sound effects are played by regular speakers. Also all flash audio on Chromium is played by regular speakers.
So may problem is: how to change audio playback devices for firefox plugin-container.
I am using kde + pulseaudio.

install pulseaudio-alsa and alsa-plugins packages (remove any custom .asoundrc from your home or /etc folders, there should only be an asound.conf created by pulseaudio-alsa which redirects alsa output to pulse)
