VMWare Fusion 6 + Firefox + Flash

I'm unable to get Flash to run under Firefox in Fusion 6.

Youtube just shows a blank black space where the video should be.

Has anyone else been having this problem?

Just discovered that Safari will play a youtube video but doesn't actually display the content.  It only displays the controls and plays the sound.

The host is OS X 10.8.4 and the guest is OS X 10.8.4

There's no 3d acceleration for OSX guests.

Actually, I discovered that it works in Chrome on the guest.

But how to make it work in Firefox?

I'm seeing this same problem just now.  The flash tester works fine for Safari and Chrome but not Firefox.

I am experiencing this issue as well, is there a resolution?  I can not believe that VMWare has let this go since October of last year?
