Upgrade messed up flash audio

Hi, not sure if this belongs in OS or apps section but since it happened when I upgraded to tiger, I'm guessing here. Since I updated OS X to tiger, all flash audio is being output through my USB headset, not my speakers (which is my default audio device). If I unplug my headset I get no audio at all. This happens in both the flash player app 7.0.24 and the browser plugin.

Have tried reinstalling plugin & standalone player, but still the same

Any ideas on who I can fix, of if there is a flash player preferences file I can delete to reset this behaviour?

Cheers

any ideas anyone?

reinstalling doesn't work, neither does uninstall/reboot/install

have also added a new user and the same happens for that user, so it must be a global setting somewhere

Solved!!

OK, after doing some more digging around, I found a few posts of various sites that attributed odd audio misconfigurations in Tiger with the coreAudio update. They all pretty much agreed that just opening GarageBand was enough to reset these rogue settings, and guess what... IT WORKS!

I now have flash & streaming quicktime playing out of my desktop sepakers just like it should.

Go figure......

Looks like you had a nice little conversation going on in here with yourself. Thanks for posting up your fix though, I'm sure it will help someone out.

LOL, your inner-demons beat me to the punch. I read your first post and was going to post on how to fix it but your dark side beat me to it. LOL
