Indeed, VDPAU_NVIDIA_NO_OVERLAY alone doesn't fix the problem, but - in my case - combined with EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1 it seems to really improve Flash Player's stability. Also the CPU usage is noticeably lower, I assume that video decoding in this case is actually offloaded to GPU. Maybe I am just lucky with no crashes, I will observe the behaviour closely, anyway there's at least one other user with the same results as me - http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=177380#7 - so hopefully it's not just a coincidence.
What may affect the stability in Firefox is the layers.acceleration .force-enabled switch, but it's disabled by default (for a very good reason) unless you have explicitly enabled it.
