There is an amd64 package for flashplugin-nonfree in Sid. It uses
nspluginwrapper, which does not work with PulseAudio, but other than
that it works as it does on 32-bit.
There's also the option of using debootstrap and schroot to have a
full-fledged copy of 32-bit Iceweasel and it's required libraries in a
chroot, provided you have the disk space. Since I use PulseAudio, this
is what I do when I need to play a Flash video with sound.
