The solution to this is shown in my second demo with the hidden control panel. Unfortunately this has a side effect where users cannot turn off the sound! The simple solution to this is to provide a link the a mirrored page which does not have sound embeded into it.
There may still be one or two useres who cannot play sound in Firefox but this will be because they do not have even the basic plugins installed and so how they manage to browse the net boggles the mind!!
In IE there appear to be no problems and this solution also works fine.

Hello my friendo I was resting a cople of times this
Solution that we have been talking about and reached a conclusion
of just don't use it mate, and let me explain why..
In the text here above quoted from you,
you're right about the empty box without movie
showing on the web site, in fact that's really what happends..
I don't want that on my pages, cause it doesn't look
well in the overall final work a blank movie apearing
over a page, at least in my opinion...
As for the secound option , a page without volume controls
and another just similar but without music that is not
a good option specialy for sites with many pages , and
in my view no music is what FF browser people have right now without
having to do all that so I do prefer to leave it the way it is now also...
This is a good advance in this subject for sure but I do prefer having it the way it is...
People can allways instal IE also, I have both browsers instaled and can
use one or other as I want or prefer for certain things...
