How to get Sound working fc10/FlashPlayer ???

[Reg Clemens]

How do you get sound working with fc10/FlashPlayer???

The problem seems to be this pulseaudio crap, but the dependencies 
are set up so you cant remove pulseaudio without removing hundreds
of other packages...

Ive seen a number of 'solutions' on the web, but none of them
seem to work.

Someone either give me or point me at a working solution.

You can always set the permissions of pulseaudio to 000.

Nope, doesnt work.
First of all pulseaudio is dynamic, only starting when there is audio, so you
would have to catch it every time you had a FlashPlayer movie with sound.

Second and more important, killing the (dynamic) pulseaudio does not produce
sound, but does freeze the video.

'nuther suggestion????
A lot of you must have figured this out by now...

Well, you should try to euhm..

# ps -A | grep pulse
 3104 ?    00:05:02 pulseaudio
# kill 3104

And see if sound is working then..
