Fedora 9 No Sound on Flash Videos

August 2nd, 2008

After living with no sound on flash videos since I installed Fedora 9 ( I don’t watch many videos as you may have guessed :-) ) I decided to look for a fix tonight. It turned out to be much simpler than I imagined, I should have done it ages ago!

For reference I had all other system sounds but the controls on the playback page of the Pulse Audio Volume Control just flickered.

Just install libflashsupport as root and you’re good to go.

# yum install libflashsupport

    THANK YOU. I’m not a big video watcher either, but this was really starting to get my goat. So simple, too!
