Whenever I open firefox, every once in a while, the sound wont play. When i go to the sound card settings, it says another application is using the sound and that if i play the test tone the app may stop responding. I play it, and it says "Failed to play test tone". I closed all my other programs EXCEPT FOR FIREFOX, an the same thing happens. I close firefox and it works. Help?

Are there any possibly crashed plugin-container processes in the Task Manager?
