Hi, I have reproduced this issue with mozilla-mplayer 3.55-1ubuntu2 on Ubuntu 8.10 with the listen live link from this page: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/ The link opens a small popup window with a player in it. If I hide this window behind another firefox window, the sound stops completely. It comes back however if you bring the iPlayer Radio Console window to the front again.
This seems to work as a workaround: In GNOME, right click on the window title and select "Always on Top", then minimise the window. Minimising the window on its own may actually be enough. -- mplayer plugin firefox only produces sound in active window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/180362 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
