I did the following and it worked for me:

# yum install nspluginwrapper.{i386,x86_64} pulseaudio-libs.i386
libflashsupport.i386
# yum install flash-plugin

I do not know if it makes a difference but I did not install the
x86_64 of libflashsupport, nor did I have to run mozilla-plugin-config
after I installed the plugin.
