AFAIK, this is the correct. Flash 10 just fixed the buggy alsa 
implementation in Flash 9 such that it now plays nice with pulse. That's 
probably what people mean when they say "flash 10 works with pulse"

As with prior versions, you can bypass alsa support with libflashsupport 
package to allow flash to work as a direct pulse client. You'll still 
need your 32 bit pulse client libs tho' if you're going to continue 
using the 32 bit flash plugin.
