How do I fix? Flash videos like YouTube won't play sound on MAC OSX 10.5.8

Sound won't play on YouTube and other flash web based videos on my MAC OSX 10.5.8 So I installed the most recent version of Adobe Flash Player and it still doesn't work. I uninstalled and reinstalled adobe flash player. Nada. I updated my computer software and firmware. Still nothing. I checked my sound and apple movie trailers play just fine.  Please assist.

Thanks so much!!!!

Oh, I have tried to play videos in both Safari and Firefox. No sound in both.

    Yay!!!! My business partner @goodbadtech (on twitter) fixed it.  Apple repair fixed it. Just got it back this morning. Then I updated Adobe flash as Mozilla asked me to do and the sounds disappeared again! Was so frustrated.  But Spencer found this link and that saved the day :-)
