Question Firefox .. no sound? But sound from amarok/banshee/etc


I hope this is in he right place.

Here's what firefox feeds me whenever I try to play anything with sound.. about a million lines of this:

Code:
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1008:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave

Amarok, banshee, etc.. all media players work fine.. I'm playing music as I type this. Just not anything in the browser.

Are you using pulseaudio? If so, this appears to be a known issue.
If not, it could be a Flash issue. Using version 10 of the flash plugin may solve it.
cheers,
