It is possible that you have a completely legitimate flash-crash bug that is 
unrelated to sound.  And at the same time myself and others could have a 
flash-crash bug that is sound dependent.

The flash plugins seem able to create a range of problems, and there is
little documentation or feedback from Adobe, combined with the
proprietary nature of the plugin it can be rather frustrating to
troubleshoot.  I've seen in other bug reports people reporting various
problems with the flash plugins that had different causes, part of the
reason I put snd-hda-intel in the original description of this bug
report was that I wanted to be specific in saying that this particular
bug report would be about the apparent conflict between the plugin and
that sound driver.  And that flash-crash problems related to color depth
or other variables could be discussed in their corresponding bug
reports.

As for whether there is any conflict related to the flash/snd-hda-intel 
combination, I can't say for sure but there does seem to be a good amount of 
evidence.  In my original description for this bug report I linked to the 
following bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/104470
in that report myself and others with sound chips that use snd-hda-intel found 
that we could stop the crashes both by disabling sound in the bios or switching 
to a kernel that used a different snd-hda-intel, which points strongly to there 
being a connection.
