I'm not entirely dismissing the fact that it may be sound related. What I'm trying to do is open the scope for further investigation. I made “no changes” to my video nor sound configurations (lsmod also shows that snd-hda-intel is loaded on my system too) yet I was able to resolve the issue by going a completely different route.

I'm posting my findings here for informative purposes only. I'm happy now because even if I open a bunch of separate windows and run various combinations of different Flash videos while doing browser back, browser forward, video pause, video replay, etc.) I'm unable to cause a crash anymore.

Maybe its a input\output communication error. Xorg.conf as well as all hardware devices such as sound cards do pertain to i\o functions. Firefox is trying to carry out the back or close command yet the Flash plugin remains persistent. What process tells Flash to stop? The action that causes the reaction involves user input (mouse). When no input occurs no problems occur. The video just runs until it ends. Similarly, a test driver is testing a car but a new prototype break line malfunctions. Even though the driver wants to stop (Firefox) the vehicle (Flash) will continue. Unfortunately the end result in both cases would be a crash.

This will be my last post regarding this. Please remember I posted here for informative purposes only.
