Here too: It's a bug in Flash. Either Flash player/Shockwave plugin for Firefox, or the player in general (i.e.: standalone and plugin). ..there have been discussions and bug reports on this issue since last year! We need to escalate the issue upwards to developers of Flash..at Adobe..FOSS players' developers..any.
