You are correct.  nspluginwrapper for both i386 and x86_64 architectures
have to be installes for things to work properly.  And they both have to
be the same version: I had 
        nspluginwrapper-1.1.0-3.fc9.x86_64
        nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-27.fc9.i386
installed.  

Also to get sound libflashpluginsupport has to be installed.  Probably
this should be a dependency for Adobe's flash-plugin.*.rpm, which it
isn't.

BTW: Where is the FAQ you're writing about?  I couldn't find it.

Thanks - jon
