It seems to work more or less here (CNN).
Had to do some fiddling though.

I do NOT have adobe-flash installed.
Your compile shows "hardened" use flag.
I think that'll make it refuse to run flash.
My compile
Code:

Calculating dependencies... done!

@gerard27, Thks 4 ur support....
please note USE="jack -pulseaudio" here....

Oops by bad... Audio only has a issue. Adobe flash test paga works fine. It doesn't seems to include audio though...

I have another system where it is working fine, with pulseaudio installed...
Neverthetless, same issues raised when I started jackd there too....
Moreover https://github.com/jackaudio/jackaudio.github.com/wiki/WalkThrough_User_PulseOnJack suggests "Running PulseAudio on top of JACK" to be a possible solution for flash alike media players working in a JACK env.
So that's the track I'm currently following.

Expecting it to be stiff, so any help would be appreciated....

Thks 4 ur attention, interest & support.
