Could be something with MPlayer or Gstreamer or one of the many other
packages for multimedia? We listen
to radio stations on streamaudio.com but haven't had this happen to
us. Did you run a check, to test the
sound on your box, to be sure you are still getting sound out of your
speakers/headphones? I don't
think there are any daemons involved here, but maybe something is
corrupted. Hopefully, someone more
knowledgeable will reply to you. Has Firefox crashed like that
previously, when you were doing the same
thing?
