Tarvis Watkins : I have a very important information in regards of this bug report, this seems to be a issue in ia32-libs. Here's how I come to this conclusion :

1. Install jaunty 64bit in virtualbox with 3D enabled (compiz) and install flashplugin-installer. (At this point, flash works correctly).
2. Change all occurence of "jaunty" to "karmic" in /etc/apt/sources.list and reload (apt-get update).
3. Install the last version of ia32-libs (will install karmic version over jaunty version that is already installed).
4. Open Firefox and try again on youtube.com (The bug appears for the first time).

I've managed to identify this package by upgrading jaunty step by step until I could reproduce the bug, and once that I identified ia32-libs as the potential source of the bug, I repeated the operations from a clean jaunty 64bit install and I only upgraded ia32-libs, and the bug appeared again right after the upgrade of ia32-libs to karmic version, without upgrading any other packages in jaunty.
