Hi,
the HSF driver can, in some cases, have a negative impact on the sound
device. However, this known behavior is only for HDA sound devices and
you appear to be using a sound device attached to the AC97 bus so this
is not the likely source of the problem.
Since the sound is working fine in KDE but not for Flash videos, I
suspect a possible problem related to OSS vs. ALSA sound API since the
Macromedia Flash player still uses the older OSS API as far as I know
while KDE is most likely using ALSA. I doubt that this is a problem
related to the modem driver, if it was the case, the sound device would
have similar problems with all programs using it.

Having problem with Intel Sound and Modem drivers.
Sound will work if I do a sound test in KDE control center but it won't
play sound on Flash videos.
I noticed that sound and PCM is up in Kmix, but checking Alsamixer sound is
up but it doesn't show any PCM in ALSA.
In /etc/modprobe it showing conflicts with the Modem driver HSF
Modem-7.68.00.07 that I compiled.
below is modprobe.conf and lspci for Sound card.
The modem driver has Audio drivers to ???
