Yeah, it's using Flash.  It played for me, both video &
audio, just fine, using mozilla-firefox-bin-1.5.0.7,
mozilla-launcher-1.52-r1 w/ USE flag aoss, and netscape-flash-7.0.68.
The things I'd check would be mixer settings, for both ALSA (alsamixer)
and OSS (rexima, aumix, etc.).  Also, make sure mozilla-launcher has
the aoss USE flag, which will make it use the aoss wrapper script for
ALSA's OSS compatibility.  Are you using the Flash9 beta, by any chance?
I doubt it would affect your audio, but if nothing else helps it would
be something else to check.


Good luck,
Conway S. Smith
