If I play a track in rhythmbox, pause it and try to play a video on youtube I get no sound on the video. If I then close both rhythmbox and firefox (or epiphany) then reopen firefox, the video or any other flash media will play WITH sound. Is there an easy fix?

TTT.

I'm semi sure I need to change the sound engine away from alsa or to alsa or something like that as that seems to be what gives people sound issues on their machines, but a little help would be greatly appreciated.
