I had the same problem: I was unable to type in Flash on any browser
(Firefox, Epiphany, Opera, Midori,) even though my Flash player was the
Adobe's latest one (10.0.15.3.) So I solved this problem as follow:

1 In Firefox, [Tools] > [Add-ons] > Disable flash plugin(s), then quit
all browser(s)

2 In Synaptic Package Manager, search with "flash" then remove
(uninstall) flash entries.

3 Get the latest flash player from Adobe's website.

4 Launch it, then the dialog like "There is the later version in
software manager and usually the later the better" and choose "ignore"
and carry on installing the flash player which you downloaded from Adobe
website.

That's it! I didn't need to reboot the system. Now flash contents works
perfectly on my Ubuntu.
