Google Chrome has its own version of Adobe Flash:

Name:	Shockwave Flash
Description:	Shockwave Flash 11.4 r31
Version:	11.4.31.110

No, Adobe Flash in Firefox is an older version (Shockwave Flash 11.1 r102), it shows
just two input devices instead of three which the newer Flash players sees.

* HDA Intel PCH
* USB Device 0x46d:0x81d

PA is not installed on my computer, so Flash accesses it directly via ALSA calls.

Yes, right after I select it and move the mouse cursor away from this combobox
so that this selection becomes active.
