I just updated to RELENG_7 (aka 7.1-PRERELEASE these days) on Monday and 
am able to use Flash 9 in native Firefox 3 with sound, no sound lag and 
no crashes so far. I have:

FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE #0: Mon Oct 27 18:31:37 EDT 2008
compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16
linux_base-f8-8_8
firefox-3.0.3,1
linux-flashplugin-9.0r124_2
nspluginwrapper-1.0.0
