[clue-tech] Solved! Sound not working in Flash Player/RealPlayer

Seems to me I posted a couple of months ago inquiring about this 
problem. Even if I didn't, a Google search reveals that many people have 
  had trouble with sound in Flash Player and/or RealPlayer, but 
solutions are few and far between. So, in case anybody here wants to 
know, I've found an absurdly simple solution. Seems both players use 
OSS, but I have ALSA and don't load the OSS compatibility layer by 
default. So:

   # modprobe snd-pcm-oss
   # modprobe snd-mixer-oss

DOHHHH! How come I never thought of this before?

Of course, YMMV.
