I've had the same problem for some time and I kind of gave up on it. CNN is one notorious site that doesn't work for me. Invariably, any video either blanks out or tries to skip to the next one in the list. However, I noticed that if I reload the page several times, it eventually plays. That's the only way to watch cnn video for me. Strange, isn't it? Google video mostly works, occasionally though I run into clips where I see the same behavior (probably linked to google video from other sites).
I mentioned about this problem long ago and I got no useful hint, unfortunately.
---- that really is a problem with flash so your best bet is to take it up with Adobe (though I gather there's a beta of Flash 10 for Linux either available or available soon).
