Ubuntu + Firefox + Flash = Out-of-Sync Sound

This problem is a type of thing that needs to be overcome to get people away from OSes like Windows: The sound in Flash in Firefox for me is out-of-sync. Things start fine, but eventually the sound gets out of sync on sites like YouTube.

Yes, I've checked various sites on the web, including this one and this one, among others. I've tried everything that's been mentioned - nothing has worked.

YouTube, Google Video (soon to be the same thing?), etc. work fine under Windows.

Is this enough to drive me back to Windows full-time? No, but it is quite annoying.
