flash allow button cannot be pressed

I noticed this before. Sometimes in some browsers with flash camera dialog you won't be able to press ALLOW button to access camera, microphone. The issue is already exposed over here Can't click allow button in flash on firefox and Adobe is tracking issue about this bug http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-4656.

The purposed solution sometimes works but also not always. The other workaround I wound on web is to set the margin-left and margin-right CSS in flash container like this:

margin-left: 0.5px;
margin-right: auto;

Well now the OS X Lion came out and the damn thing doesn't work in any browser! I even tried the Facebook profile photo taker which also uses flash for taking photos. Also there you cant press ALLOW button. Same with YouTube video recorder etc...

What to do?

See here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/905/cpsid_90508.html#main_Flash_Player

Details:

The Flash Player settings dialog does not respond to mouse clicks.
If you find yourself in this state, you can use the "tab" key to change the focus to the "Close" button and use the spacebar to close the dialog. While not all settings are available, you can also use the Flash Player native control panel located in System Preferences.

More or less we are going to have to wait for an update I think.
