I had a similiar problem with this version of firefox. When I installed a plugin then rebooted I had to reinstall my plugins. I was very confused but installed flash and did a locate libflash to see where it was installing it to. After some debugging I had to manually copy libflash to /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9/plugins/libflashplayer.so

No idea why but it has worked since.
