Recently, the audio on Flash movies viewed in all web browsers stopped playing on my iMac. And apparently, I’m not the only one. Starting GarageBand fixes the issue temporarily, so I’ve ruled out the problem being exclusively an Adobe-created one; upgrading to Flash Player 9.0.2 didn’t change things.
In fact, initially, installing the update created more problems. I ended up having to run a disk repair utility because the volume information on my boot drive was mangled, and some permissions on Flash files got hosed.

Ah! Actually, I just found the solution. For yourself, or anyone else who finds themselves with this issue, apparently sometimes the Midi settings get changed. What you do is go to Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup and make sure that the settings for “Built-in Output” are at 44 kHZ instead of 96. Worked beautifully for me.
