does this happen only after running flash in firefox? that is, without
running flash, do you see this crash?

Just talked with Lennart about this:

(11:39:09 AM) rodrigo_: mezcalero: I've just packaged it, and seems
some people are having crashes when running flash
(11:39:20 AM) mezcalero: rodrigo_: it should, but i haven't tested it
(11:39:38 AM) mezcalero: rodrigo_: libflashsupport does not solve all
problems with flash
(11:39:52 AM) mezcalero: rodrigo_: the way flash destructs the
libflashsupport module is racy
(11:39:58 AM) mezcalero: rodrigo_: and impossible to fix from my side
(11:40:06 AM) mezcalero: rodrigo_: hence it might crash or freeze when
closing a window
(11:40:13 AM) mezcalero: rodrigo_: but otherwise it should be fine

Seems the flash 10 beta fixes all the issues raised by the pulseaudio
developers, so please make sure it's a flash issue (run all other audio
apps except flash-based), and we'll see at updating to the 10 beta to
fix the issue if it's indeed related.
