That did the trick, thanks notting. Hrm, should that be installed by
default by chance? Otherwise, think adobe needs to require that package
I would think?

You'd think that, but they refuse. And you can't currently require an
i386 package on an x86_64 system. It's a bit of a pickle.

You would be correct I guess. Hrm, wonder if release notes should have
info on that or worth it?

Anywho, probably won't forget to install that again since I had the
problem.

Check your volume control. Flash uses PCM. Check if that is muted.

So, didn't work for me. I had both the x86_64 and i386 versions installed;
no sound. I removed them both, and the flash plugin itself, and reinstalled
just the flash plugin and libflashsupport.i386, and still no sound. Hmmm.

Probably OT for this list but:

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f8/en_US/sn-Desktop.html#sn-KDE-Desktop

Read the section titled: 10.3.1. Enabling Flash Plugin

Thanks, but, yeah, I'd done all that.


I've got another x86_64 rawhide machine where it all works fine -- I'm not
really sure what the difference is or really where to begin looking.

Oh, and also: after I did the above remove-and-reinstall, youtube movies
seem to play at about 10x speed (still with no sound). Even after I also
re-added 64-bit libflashsupport out of superstition.

I thought I'd figured it out when I found that swfdec-mozilla had gotten
installed too, but no, removing that didn't fix anything.

So, you have installed something like this?

[matej@hubmaier ~]$ rpm -qa firefox* nsplugin* *flash* | sort
firefox-debuginfo-3.0-0.60.beta5.fc9.x86_64
firefox-3.0-0.60.beta5.fc9.x86_64
flash-plugin-9.0.124.0-release.i386
libflashsupport-000-0.5.svn20070904.i386
libflashsupport-000-0.5.svn20070904.x86_64
nspluginwrapper-debuginfo-0.9.91.5-28.fc9.i386
nspluginwrapper-debuginfo-0.9.91.5-28.fc9.x86_64
nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-28.fc9.i386
nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-28.fc9.x86_64
[matej@hubmaier ~]$

no swfdec-mozilla, you have restarted firefox and you cannot play

Right, sans the debuginfo package.

It would play, just at hyperspeed. Solution was to *remove* the i386
libflashsupport. That is, I now have:

$ rpm -qa firefox* nsplugin* *flash* | sort
firefox-3.0-0.60.beta5.fc9.x86_64
flash-plugin-9.0.124.0-release.i386
libflashsupport-000-0.5.svn20070904.x86_64
nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-27.fc9.i386
nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-27.fc9.x86_64

and everything plays as normal.

On my other test machine (F9, not rawhide), though, I had that, got no
sound, and added the i386 libflashsupport and now it works fine. *shrug*
