I'm sorry, but this is nonsense. Flash works fairly well with Opera and
it doesn't seem to have any trouble negotiating access to the sound device.

But then again, it actually doesn't matter whose "fault" it is. Nothing
great in this world was ever built out of excuses. No commercial
product. Nothing. Please let's not have any more of this "It's Adobe's
fault" stuff. Will that make my browser work? Will it make Ubuntu a
viable desktop operating system?

There seem to be a lot of people for whom this bug seems to be fixed by
an upgrade to Flash 10 or whatever. Unfortunately that isn't the case
for me. I "upgraded" to 10 and I'm still spending my browsing hours
looking at blank rectangles.
