There seem to be several bugs out there related to this one, including bug 254405 and 353498 (which I reported). I first noticed this problem as far back as Hardy. For me, upgrading to Jaunty actually fixed the problem - I haven't had to restart Firefox since. I do notice times when the sound will "skip" momentarily, however, which might be the flash player reconnecting as described above.
