Maybe I have it reversed about what programs are using Alsa instead
of PA. PA locks the sound ports while it is active, but if I
remember correctly from past experience, it releases them when it is
not playing anything... (I may not have that part correct...)

I don't have a solution for this (other than quitting Firefox) but I've had the same problem on two machines on both FC8 and FC11. The former without PulseAudio and the latter with. Same issue. It would be nice to find a solution!
