That didn't work for me. I had to delete my ~/.macromedia directory. Then don't touch the broken volume control slider on any youtube video or sound goes away again. Some stupid updates they did to their flash code has broken youtube for all Linux users.

Yes, I tried the aoss firefox after installing the alsa-oss package. Still no good.

Deleting the .macromedia folder worked!!!! Thank you, ylikone!

Linux users are stuck using version 7! :(

Good luck! I don't think Adobe will care. They'll probably give us Flash version 9 in 2008.

Good to hear Youtube is fixed! Yay!!:p
