Its always falling down almost immediately when i hear music. I have tried to update Adobe Flash player and so on. But it still not working, its strange but i have been thinking if Mozilla doesn't allow the adobe flash player. Do I need maybe change Firefox to something else??

Is it only the sound or do you have other problems with Flash as well?

See What to do if Firefox won't play any sounds and Fix common audio and video issues

You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.

You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.

You will only see the Firefox program in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.


You can also try to uninstall and reinstall Flash.
