This, at least for me, is a sound issue; more specifically an alsa vs oss issue.
I can replicate the crash with the following steps: 1) open xmms 2) play arbitrary mp3 (using the OSS output driver "libOSS") 3) open new instance of firefox 4) go to youtube.com and play random video (you should not hear any sound from the video as OSS has taken over /dev/dsp) 5) while the video is playing, stop xmms (not pause) 6) press back on browser 7) crash! I solved this problem by setting *everything* to use alsa. It seems as though flash (which, for me, uses alsa) does not play nice with OSS. D.
