Bug Description

All flash movies I've been playing in konqueror had their sound and video asynchronous. The sound always lags behind by a second or so.

It's not important which flash movie is played, it seems to affect everything - so any movie from one of todays popular flash movie hosters (youtube, google video), where I could tell if sound/video are synchronous or not, had this problem.

An example where this can bee seen is this stupid little firefox commercial - it's not specific to that video:

This is with the original macromedia flash 7 from the dapper repository. The problem is specific to Konqueror though - when the same videos are played with Firefox (which I had to install just for that purpose) sound and video are perfectly synchronous. There is no other version of flash installed on the system and right clicking the video shows that in both cases "Macromedia Flash 7" is used - so it seems to be a Konqueror issue.

Not a problem on Feisty with Flash 9, but happens on Edgy with Flash 7.

Works fine with flash 9, and it's available in backports.
