I just found out I have an issue with audio playing in iceweasel, but NOT in

I've mostly used iceweasel, but lately, every morning when I try to listen
live to a news show ( http://wsbradio.com/ - listen live) the audio comes out
either garbled, or not at all. usually I just do:
/etc/init.d/alsasound restart . It crashed iceweasel, and when I restart
iceweasel, audio works. Today I decided to just fire up google-chrome, and
went to that listen live, and IT WORKED.
any clues as to the difference in sound capabilities?
No, but I in these modern Web 2.0 times, web pages are much busier
and thus burn more CPU (all the same CPU!), thus making each tab
time slice with all the others.
Presumably you've got ABP and Flashblock installed, which will
noticeably ameliorate the load of IW. Also, running v3.6.4 (with
it's out-of-process plugins feature) from Experimental (but I do see
where it now has the brand new v3.6.7) also greatly helps of
multi-core systems.
