I am trying to use the Linux flashplugin with Linux netscape 4.76 under emulation and the OSS sound drivers. I can view flash content fine, but I can't get the sound to work. The latest Flash plugin README has this to say: A defect was discovered in the sound functionality of the 5.0r45 build of the Flash Player Netscape plug-in for Linux. Occasionally and randomly, sounds in a Flash movie would fail to play. This problem affected only configurations where Flash Player played sounds directly through OSS (Open Sound System). Configurations using Enlightened Sound Daemon (ESD) were not affected. This new version of the Flash Player fixes the above defect. Sounds now play properly through both OSS and ESD. In the old Flash Player version, one workaround to the problem is to run ESD on your Linux system. ESD is installed by default in several popular Linux distributions, including RedHat. But I still can't get it working.
