 I don't hear sounds from Flash movies in Browse 96 in 8.2-760.

 E.g. the top left game at http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal/ is currently
 Sunny Day Sky, , no sound.

 I found a small sample swf with sound in the gnash distribution, here it
 is: http://www.skierpage.com/olpc/flash_tests/
 Currently a "naked" swf doesn't load in Browse (bug #8497), so click
 embed_car_smash.html

 You can also run gnash standalone from Terminal:
   `gnash http://www.skierpage.com/olpc/flash_tests/car_smash.swf`
 and that has no sound either.  So I'm assigning to component gnash-plugin
 rather than browse-activity.

 strace shows gnash attempting to load various GStreamer and alsa files.
