If it doesent work in IE9 best option is to fall back to flash. You can do this two ways;

The hacky way adding a meta tag to render as IE8 hence faling back to flash;

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" />

The better way is to set in the wordpress options 'mode: 'auto_plugin' - which should force IE 9 to use flash.
