That might be the reason, but unfortunately I don't know how to 
make shure, that the sounddevice no longer influence the 
flash-plugin neither mozilla itself.

ok I got it:

If I type the following:
debian:/home/gerhard# /etc/init.d/alsa stop
Storing ALSA mixer settings...done.
Shutting down ALSA sound driver (version 0.9.0beta10): no. (sound 
is being used
by pid 22111 )
debian:/home/gerhard# ps ax | grep  22111
22111 ?        S      1:06 /usr/bin/artsd -F 10 -S 4096 -d -s 60 -m 
artsmessage

Just kill artsmessage? How can I diable it? And for what is it in 
use? I can't find anything useful about it. Not by apt-cache either 
by man or kde-help.

I killed artsmessage and now mozilla doesn't crash on flash. Weird 
because I'm shure about the fact the swf doesn't plays any sound.
 
Is there a way to avoid kde starting the soundserver, and start or 
stop it by hand?

What's about disable the flash-plugin. Is there a pref option?

I can't reproduce the crash like described by Ron on 
http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/59/25510.html
